Side Scoop Louvers – $126
November 16, 2010 by ShaneCool off that Engine Bay!! These Side Scoop Louvers are designed to increase and direct the flow of cooling air into the engine bay. We’ve built several GTM’s here at VRaptor SpeedWorks, and if there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s that the restrictive mesh provided with the kit does NOT provide sufficient air-flow to the engine bay! It gets HOT back there!
These Side Scoop Louvers consist of a set (Pair) of laser-cut 6061 aluminum parts that assemble and interlock to form each Side Scoop Louver Assembly for the left and right side body openings. The parts are shipped with a raw aluminum finish (not painted or powdercoated as shown in the photos) and must be assembled and bonded together with panelbonding adhesive once they are custom formed to the body opening. Once each assembly is completed and bonded together, it can be bonded to the inner surface of the fiberglass body during final assembly of the car.
These Side Scoop Louvers work best when used together with Diffuser Louvers or “Between Strakes” Diffuser Louvers to assist in the flow of air into and out of the engine bay.
