Triple Seven CF hood vent installed

No it warps. It's kinda garbage. I think they stopped caring about the platform too. Haven't heard anything from them in awhile.

Mine:

Starting to explore options in hood vents. Which one do you run and do you have recommendations? I’d wanna go carbon ideally

as far as i know, the ONLY hood vent vendor that has actually spent the time to go to a physical wind tunnel with a supra to capture downforce and cooling stack data is racelouvers.

I guess I wasn't clear. That is a Triple 7 vent in my photo. It warped literally the first track day with it.

I gotcha thank you! I wonder how the Verus carbon one has holds up. That’s the one I’ve been mainly looking at getting.

I've had the Verus. It works well...for the street. Not sure about tracking.

I used the existing hole/area and have been running the Triple7 vent for 2 years now. So far no warping, even in the Texas heat. But I don't track mine. YMMV.

Problem with the Verus one is it's just wayyyyy too small.

I see yeah I didn't realize the substantial size difference between the two make sense now why the carbon triple seven costs about twice as much as the carbon verus one.

Lucky they work because you wouldn't install them for their aesthetics that's for sure.

There’s always hood spacers (showing my age) or a full blown hood replacement ?
