Brake cooling??
I was going through either ecklers or mid america and i saw a brake cooling kit that people could purchase. it bolts right where the factory front under valance is installed right underneath the front bumper...then 2 hoses come off and sit right in front of the 2 rotors. does anyone have this? Is it good or bad?

I've got it too.
The hoses are kinda cheap, so I know I'll be replacing them in the future.
exoticmuscle.com sells a better kit.
after boiling my brakes at Gingerman! :eek:

I've got it. It's hard to measure how much it really works, but I've never had any major heat problems since installing it. It certainly can't hurt.
I chewed up the original ducts last year and installed some new ones this winter.

If you're racing or autocrossing, I'd say definitely. For everyday street driving, I dunno. :confused:
