Hi
My VF SV6 ute now has little man syndrome. Congrats gjohnson....it looks crazy.

The front fascia ducts are only there to reduce aerodynamic drag, by around 6% from memory. Nothing to do with brake cooling.
The hood vents only have 3 open vents and 2 dummy closed vents. Apparently if all 5 were open it wouldn't vent properly and end up sucking air in rather than venting hot air out. Put your hand over the vent after a run and you can feel the hot air coming out.
6% reduction. Not bad for a couple of little ducts. Base of windscreens have a higher pressure so trying to vent out of that area is not going to work. So I take it then only the forward ducts are open?Quote:

Does your setup run a purge pump to move the stale oil from the turbos?
Yes mate, pump even runs for a bit after stopping engine to continue oil flow through turbos to cool them.Quote:
