Here's the link to my brake cooling setup mentioned previously TravisJB Journal

... it seems to be working... I'll measure temps weekend after next and we'll compare to where they were pre-cooling... but I know it is working, as I'm no longer seeing smoke come off the brakes when I finish a session! lol... and no fade, no ice mode...

I was originally concerned that the tires would rub the tubing but that has been minimal and not caused any problems

And yes, they do mount directly to the OE fang locations and draw air from those points... pictures should clarify the setup, but any questions go ahead and ask here or on my journal
