Thanks, I'm pretty stoked to see the results too! Not sure when Ludwig comes to town again but when he's here he can make changes if needed while on the dyno

Yeah, I would like to find a larger gauge. I have the typical 6" gauge, which works but I had to do about four or more overlapping segments to help keep the shape. I like the vac hose idea. I was thinking about that yesterday but was worried the thickness of the hose would be an issue.

I'm doing something very similar with my FC right now. Taking two of their dual outlet ducts and using one to cool the oil coolers, and the other is going to the brakes.  |
I'm glad you mentioned this as it is a worry of mine and I wanted someone else to mention it before planting it in anyone's head at first. To test for any difference I'll monitor IATs with and without the back opening of the OE brake duct blocked off. If I have a difference, which I'm sure there will be I may look into the Pegasus duct inlet Ted mentioned. . We'll see.
