Default Question about radiator panels???

I am just wondering if a "Full" radiator panel will help accumulate/direct more air for the JWT popcharger. thanks for the info.

Maybe a little yeah. Ive seen a nice one that goes over to where the a Varis air duct would go and tunnels the air into the stock air box or pop-charger. That would be a sweet NA set up...

the carbon one looks sweet as well. great way to dress up your engine bay and also help get the cool air into the popcharger

they look pretty.....that is all

that being said it's a must have in my book, as it really dresses up the engine bay nicely and makes it look alot more finished

there was a thread here recently about inlet pressure based on vehicle speed, and at 65mph, there would be something like 1/100 psi additional inlet pressure from the ram air effect. cold air is already coming thru the opening, but a shield around the air filter would help with keeping the hot air away.
