Oh excellent. I had some spindle mounts made awhile back but couldn’t figure out a way to route a proper hose without completely cutting up the car. This seems like a great option in between a full 3” routed to the front and the factory deflectors. Will definetely be buying.

If you guys have any other questions about the kit, let me know.

I have no idea how to rotate the pics, sorry!
Nice looking kit. Would you be willing to sell the 3D printed duct adapter by itself?

I’m sure we can do that. It’s not something I’ve priced up to this point. Shoot me a message and we can discuss.

Looks promising. Need to make sure they clear at full lock with tires on

I should be receiving my kit next week and will take photos at full lock (305/30/19) and stock wheels. I have no affiliation with the company just a happy tracker that something like this is out. Really made my e46 braking last a bit longer on track .

Where is the hose blowing onto on the wheel side? It's hard to tell in the photo

All SS models share the same ducts no matter the option.

We took this into consideration (along with cross-sectional area of the stock duct) when choosing the diameter of our piping and ended up with 2.5". During our testing on track we encountered 0 contact between the tire and ducting for two full days on track (8- 20 min sessions). We did test at full lock condition, and were able to get some contact (305/30/19), which is to be expected for any dedicated ducting setup. What we found was to be acceptable, and did not cause any deformation to the ducts.

The ducting mates to our rotor backing plate that is included with the kit and directs air to the inner edge of the rotor, close to the hub.

Pretty sure that’s the only seller right now. That’s where the manufacture directed me to. I ordered thru KNS and they sent me a message stating this will ship early next week.

Not talking about the deflector, talking about the duct in the lower grill that passes thru and exits in the wheelwell next to the auxiliary cooler.

I've seen them on a convertible because a customer bought the track deflectors and I installed them.
