Stuff to make:
2xInterface pieces to OEM front grill with the two pieces removed....will utilize OEM fastner location at top.

2xflange to penetrate fenderwell liner

2xflange/duct to target back side of rotors without interfering with wheel movement

Not sure how long this will take but will hopefully be able to knock it out within a month..
Keep us posted on your progress. 90% of it I could put together by modifying off the shelf racing parts, but it is the hub flange duct that needs to be very specific to our cars and is the PITA bit.

I was thinking of going with a 3 inch intake, 2-inch reducer (increase air velocity and make it easier to route the duct) and then figuring out a solution for the hub.
