That looks like a great solution. I just checked out the daliracing site and they even have an pictorial of the install procedure. A very simple install and cheap too, only $45.

The only miss I'd give it is the requirement to remove the dust shield. It would be better if they were to design a special dust shield that allowed the air to flow in but still kept the mud out.

Are there kits available now?

What's the name of his team? I don't see it in this year's roster...

Yes, very good stuff!

Of course, I was hoping to see an S2000 run, but I understand it's not ideal for any of the classes.

I too, think a kit is overkill. These are brake ducts not an intake. Pegasus has flexible brake duct. Opt for the silicone if you're determined to spend money.

Just cut out the fakes, screw or rivet the duct (with some washers to the existing tabs and route it to the rotors. At this point I'd look into mating the ducting to an aluminum downspout fitting and riveting that to the backing plate (or just removing it altogether which would be a lot simpler.) Most club racers seem to manage with this kind of simple (and inexpensive) setup.

This is not a situation where an airtight path is necessary. And replacing nothing with carbon fiber is one of the few cases where it doesn't result in any weight savings.

I have to agree with Jim that brake ducting probably doesn't need to be overkill.

Carbon Fiber would be more for looks than functionality.

I've been perfectly happy with the King duct installation. I would like for them to come up with something for the rears however.

Hi.
What size must have the Barke duct ?
Where can I find Pegasus Duct ?
What is the part number ?

Thanks for your response.

Best regards.

Hope you don't mind me bringing this thread back from the dead yet again, but I was hoping to put some ducts in my car and all of the links to pictures are dead. I was thinking of putting the SPA-D102 ducts form racer parts wholesale on the underside of the car to draw air to the front brakes. Possibly cut holes in the plastic undercarriage pieces and then route from the duct to the center of the front rotors. Any problems with that?

But what on earth do I do to get air to the rears? I know people are drilling out the dust shield, but where are you drawing air from???

Also, can I use the THENN-300 neoprene hose from racerpartswholesale.com, or do I need the more expensive THESS-300 silicone hose? It would seem to me the 350 degree heat tolerance of the neoprene should be enough, but then again, right next to the rotor it'll probably get quite a bit hotter than that.
