This is me seeing if any SN95 owners have already done what I want to do to your car.I have read a lot, too much maybe, about radiator ducts, and I am convinced that there is no downside to such a mod.Cost is moot considering that everyone and their brother is willing to spend upwards of $300 on a cold air intake that ultimately does little to no good, and you can pick up everything you would need to duct your radiator at Home Depot for far less than that.Like I said, the system I am talking about still utilizes the radiator fans. This is inspired by what racecars have, it is not a full on racecar radiator set-up.Racecars are built feom the ground up. They can iincorporate a properly designed duct system from the start. Retrofitting ducts to a factory car brings with it a lot of space constraints, since it was not designed into the car from the beginning.There are technical dimensions that offer the best results when it comes to shape and size of the ducts and openings. However, even making an effort to get close to those dimensions and ratios, yet working with the space available in a factory car, still offers great benefits... even on a daily driver.My only concern with adding radiator ducts and the hood vent with a belly pan under the engine compartment is the massive amount of front downforce taking traction off the rear axle. So the rear end will have to be upgraded at the same time as this.</blockquote>
