Finally completed the job, which included new brake ducts and the holes to feed them. I had a ranger airdam on it which worked, but looked ugly, and when the ducts got damaged and worn out, I decided to try the Mach 1. It fit pretty good, I just had to slit the backing in two places so I could bend the fender extensions in to fit the fenderline without wrinkling it. I think it turned out pretty clean.









I used 4-inch-to-3-inch galvanized reducers bent down square at the large end for the scoops:





Passenger side ducting:


I closed the gap between the duct and the dam with aluminum tape, then painted it. Looks like ass but few people will see it


Drivers side ducting:

I haven't had it out yet, I will tonight though. I don't expect any differences except I hope the duct openings are big enough.

It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

I'd be highly interested in hearing how it changes/affects high speed handling. Also, I'd discussed venting my hood with @hoopty5.0 and he mentioned your hood vent. Was that done for cooling or air pressure purposes? What were the results? Very nice car, btw!

I can look past a little ugliness when I know it's a purpose built car and serves a specific purpose. The chin spoiler looks good btw. When do we get to see some more go pro action?

I'll post some video later on. I don't think it made any handling difference, if it did it was way overshadowed by my new Eibach rear swaybar LOL. The hood vent was for cooling. Again, since I don't datalog, I only have anectdotal evidence, I don't think it kept ultimate temps lower but it seems to take longer to get there.

Was the install pretty straight forward?
