pics of my car with new hood
Yeah the car runs noticable cooler. I've noticed a couple degree drop in coolant on normal cruising conditions. The biggest difference is noticed in stop and go traffic, the temps barely raise any if at all. Combined with my fluidyne radiator and haltech wired up to keep the fans on always, it stays around 180-185 for normal driving. I have yet to do any hard driving test.
I have the mazdaspeed...yours is definitely more squared off looking and the vents are bit deeper. Like an idiot I had my vents blocked off. I was affraid of rain. Sorry but I think I'd have to say I like the looks of the mazdaspeeds a little more. Your is very nice though and you saved a good chunk of $.

Hey 94, a bit off topic here, but what's your single turbo setup? Psi, power, ecu, etc.

Cetchup, the guy I bought the hood from gave me the locking hood pins. I'm not sure who makes them, my cousin said he's seen locking pins in magazines before and they cost about $35. I can ask him and see if he remembers where he saw them.
In my quest for lower temps and I think those hoods (and the Mazdaspeed) look great, this is something I may be doing soon.
Is water pouring down those big openings going to cause problems during a rain??
Thanks

What I/C do you have??? I wonder if it will fit with an M2 Med SMIC? My M2 ic is a very tight fit, and I'm wondering if the vents will hit the smic.
Thanks,

I don't believe Faspac makes that hood any more for the FD.
