you cant beat the deal that i got....and guess what, if i do get that sponsorship that everyone thinks is soo shady, i will have 3. i will get me a bonified authentic feed one....or should i get that whole panspeed front piece......hmmm

 

FEED Body parts. :yum:

 

F it. I just forced the original undertray into place and cut off the pieces that were touching. Seems to work well

 

and that's also what i did...

 

i like the ducting trick, so what kind of difference did you see with it?

 

Well I dont run up to 94C now. I still have to cut away some more of the inner duct but other than that it works great.

I love zip ties :bigok:

 

Did you ever get the belly pan back on?

 

I was going to say.... just stick a flat piece of sheet metal up there to make sure that the air goes through the radiator instead of under the car..... Has anyone else done this??? I dont have my stock one anymore (got demolished in the wreck)



I was thinkin something like this (jt-imports sells this for the j-spec from mazdaspeed)

 

I tried w/ sheet metal.. I got pissed off and modified the stock duct

 

here is what is cool. the duct actually really works. you can blow in there and feel the air run to the radiator. i can not tell you any cooler numbers because i do not log them like i did for the intercooler survey.



fd3, yes i put the belly pan back on, but going into this winter, it got so brittle, it cracked alot and was too difficult to keep on. i am now in the shop at night making a custom one out of fiberglass and will post pics as soon as i get it done. it will be similar to an aftermaket undersweep that i have seen. i also have made provisions for an angled duct that comes upwards and boxes the bottom of the radiator in.....



hopefully it will work as i have invisioned...
