Modifiy for Brake Ducts Question

Hope it's not 2" hose. I will be also ducting in additional air from underneath.

I was talking about the front fascia. I will carefully cut out each flat plastic fill in-between the fins and fab a plate to go on the backside with the right size mount for the hose. I need to know what size the hose is to buy the mount.

I just went and measured my stillen kit sitting in the box. The hose is 2".

Seems small and when I first opened the box I was like wtf but according to the data it gets the job done.

Thank you very much Shotta. Yes 2" is small.

I have always used 3". From what I have read, the kit is marginal to not enough which is why I already knew I would need additional cooling. I may just make my own kit using the dust shields like some others have done.
