Trying to learn a bit about aero on this car... ordered a bunch of wool yarn - going to do a yarn test to determine which way air is flowing with different aero setups... also ordered four of these:

These read differential air pressure... going to use these to determine the optimal placement for a vent in the hood to draw air through the intercooler and radiator and out through the hood... will also use it to figure out of the side scoops are working, rear diff cooler, and how to optimize all of the above... it's going to be a lot of work, but somewhere down the road we should all benefit from the data... stay tuned for more in a couple months
