Hi all

Are the scoop mods on ebay, the ones that modify the airflow so it hits 100% of the intercooler any good?

cheers
Dave

A few people have these - apparently at a high speed the air just hits the back of the intercooler - however a splitter distributes it more evenly across the surface, a nice cheap mod

What is a slam panel deflector and what does it do please? I am likely to be hitting the limit for my top mount soon and it will need all the help it can get.

It fits between the front panel of your car and your radiator and stops the cool air that come through the front of yoru car escaping and keeps the underbonnet temp lower.

Obviously not as good as a front mount but a step in the right direction - incidentally i'll be flogging these shortly for 25 quid - but like said in previosu post will have to take it up with the boss (Seane) on how i go about flogging stuff on here.
