Using the fog lamp holes to make brake cooling ducts? Has anyone done this, pics or links to details!?

[chrisvx220]

Sorry meant to put this under tuning and modifications, could a mob move please?

Yep, I've done it. Joe_589 and Cliffie have also done it and undoubtedly lots of others have. I took the easy option and bought a custom made kit that includes shrouds for the centre of the disks, to properly deliver the cooling air into the centre of the disks. It's all made by Ducatti996Senna on this forum and is a really well put together kit, comes with great fitting instructions and works a treat.

Loads of people have done this. Techieboy springs to mind. edit: too late

This is what you need http://www.vx220.org...-cooling-ducts/ I have them fitted, I fitted them when I was using 1144's and they did make a difference

[color=rgb(90,90,90);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;background-color:rgb(247,251,252);]I'm in the process of fitting an uprated ARB so thought i'd get rid of the useless fog lights and fit some brake ducts. I'm struggling to see a suitable route for the ducting, looks like going through the rad housing is the only option? Not too keen on cutting that! [/color]

This is the only option (if you don't want to cut the chassis).

or something like this

Looks good! Where can i buy this funnel?

[Andy_VX]

Hmmm, not a bad idea, looks like you'd get more air through that large intake than the fog light aperture too! Must be pretty close to the ground though with lowered ride heights.

I use bits from revotec, make sure you get the clips that hold the pipe on to the side else they can rub on the tyres.

Going to unashamedly bump that thread..

pete_r has some very nice rigid ducts fitted to his. Not sure how it was done though.

Mine fit to the back of the fog light holes and pass through the radiator housing (the bits that hang down behind the fogs). They point 45deg toward the discs. I think I brake fairly late and aggressively though I'm no racer, Simon has been out on track with me to comment, but they don't really overheat at all any more whereas 10-12 minutes on most circuits and the abs would start pulsing earlier and earlier.

I didn't want to go any faster! ::
