im nick from greece and just joined this forum...

i dont have a csl but i am using a csl intake on my car
and a lot of other things
such as a set of acralite pistons with 12,5:1 cr
and a pair of schrick cams 304/296-12,5mm lift
and a load of other things...

basically everything is changed:banghead: besides the interior ( i am looking for recaro pp or sparco or cobra seats at this time ) and the roof witch is going to be changed also with the cf one from the csl...

a question to you all guys..

i have seen in a lot of pics that some of the cars in the csl-cup and in some in the usa, are utilizing a hole in the left side headlamp of the car.
the purpose is for more fresh air directly into the intake
is it good for street use?
any drawbacks ?
what happens with rain?
is it something different in the intake?


does anybody has some pics from a car like this but inside the engine bay???
i am thinking of fabricating something like that in my car..
its not a race car though...

well that's it for my 1st post here
glad i joined lots of info so far!!!

I think I have seen the front end you are talking about. I'm fairly sure it is two additional vents in a CSL airdam to blow cold air on to the front brakes for race cars. Not needed for road cars, however we could start the AP / Alcon v's std argument up if we wanted some fun!
