Anyone fitted any? In the middle of making some up and any inspiration welcome :) Seen a few s1 racers drill the sill and have a inlet there but I was thinking having a naca duct attached to undertray / lower shock mount going to the disc :)

Would the plastic Porsche scoop some fit to the front also fit the rear?

Not much surface area if you use that naca-tube option. The tube should be attached to the widest section with the narrow part pointing forward because the widening created low pressure to induce airflow.

This could work if you cut it into the undertray and then go into the wheel arch and point at the disc. If pointing outward and large enough it will also depressurise the rear arches a little.

I assume you don't want to cut the bodywork?

Those nacas use 76mm tubes which is mahoosive I don't mind cutting the undertray but I don't wanna do the bodywork! The Honda sits very low to tonthe undertray and takes up a lot of room

The bigger the better (so im told) ;) I would fit the largest you can, places like demon twerks, and merlin etc sell loads of sizes.
