hey im not sure if this should be posted here or performance, but has anybody come across some good hood vents for FiST? I would love the look and it would be nice to have the extra cooling.

Lots of the guys this side of the world are fitting the Focus RS vents.

Like that ^!

Reckon these vents look better :

I would totally rock these vents. Wonder how much something like this would cost to have professionally installed?

Not to much I wouldn't think. If you zoom in on the image they look like it's just a clean cut hole with dark coloured mesh mounted on the underside then the edges on the sides exposed to airflow over the bonnet have a sculpted leading edge to help extract the hot air. I did notice these two spots seem to be the warmest areas on the hood after a spirited drive. Being an r5 wrc fiesta it would be a case of function over form. I'd love to just don't know if I can bring myself to cut the hood up lol

I....I want those vents.

I wonder if this compromises the safety of the vehicle in the event of a front end accident? I know some hoods are designed to crinkle and absorb some of the impact.

Just contacted seibon, carbon by design, and VIS about making hoods for our cars, we'll see what they say...

Hmm... I wonder about fitting a NACA duct right in front / on top of where the air filter is with a CAI. It would lower the intake temps and effectively turn it into a ram air.

I'd like to see something g like this for the fist

Lancer evo 6 bonnet has this but behind the factory air box location
Later they went to this which I think is probably better for cold air feed

Most bonnet vents these days in motorsport seem to be for the use of hot air extraction and down force aids rather than cold air feeds.

 

[LVracerGT]

I'm sure someone could do some R&D with a CAI setup and see if they can get an actual power gain from it. *Looking at you COBB*

VIS replied to me. They said they would need to make 20 pieces for a hood to happen, but they are currently behind on other projects.

Not knowing a whole lot about aero, but I would assume that a NACA duct probably will not do anything for an air intake. Air is likely moving too quickly to be caught by it (or enough to make it worth it). All/most race cars and a lot of production cars are now using the airflow from the front of the car through the rad, then sucking it up and out the hood to add to cooling to the engine. I would say this would be the most beneficial way to do it.

Where did ICE NINE go with their Shiney bits of Carbon Fiber ??

I contacted DTM autobody in LA for body kit with roof scoop and good vents and paint to match body kit on Fiesta R5.... They quoted me $7,100..... Should I do it?

I don't think you can have Ram air with a turbo sucking in so much... I'd imagine air inlet velocity is greater than most speeds you'd practically see.... the cooling benefits would be nice though.

If that price is for fitted and painted, that sounds like a good price, considering that the Ken Block style kit inc spoiler costs over $5K US! From puma speed in UK, and that kit is really for previous model Fiesta.
The job would need full respray of both sides of car for a good job.
It would also be a 1 of a kind!
