Every time I touch the mouse, it brings back memories the first time I was with a girl.... I sweat, my hands tremble, the noise out of my throat is that of a mouse that was stepped on. As I drew you a exact replica of the v2 Powell brake duct. I squealed with the delight to be able to bring you such information and detail. I touched my mouse. Instantly sweat started to drip in places I have only heard of, from the internets. My fingers kept slipping off the mouses two glorious large buttons... should I use the scroll wheel? NO....not yet... too soon. My hand trembled as I tried to create words you could read and get an idea of what I was trying to describe...but my brain...it couldn't translate them through to you... I'm sorry I failed...but I swear I was able to finish myself...just as I put the last drill hole dot on the picture for you.....

Was the one that mounts at the knuckle/hub with the duct from the fog light scrapped? I remember you saying it wasn't economical for the average person to do it that way.
So if I understand correctly this just works by directing airflow to the general brake area, vs ducting air to the rotor itself? Seems like a very economical way of improving airflow to the brakes, but I could still see the actual duct being an option for more dedicated racers.

John also mentioned these similar ducts come stock on porsche.
The duct from the fog light is great...in theory, but try finding room and then when you have to replace the hose after ever track day, you'll just have pissed off customers. I looked and routing was a little cramped :/ These are cheap, easy, and do the job. I'm all for it.

I aim for any and all objects.
I guess you are right.
So install is basically drill a hole through the control arm and bolt down?
I have never experienced brake fade as I don't track of auto X.
Any reason to run these on a street car only?
