Oil cooler diverter valve

Not sure it would Alex. I think the whole engine compartment and undertray kind of act in a similar, if very inefficient way to the drawing theory, with exits at the rear of the undertray. Maybe opening additional holes will break what seal there is and make it worse? Don't know, just an idea. Might work if extra outlets far enough back?

I've got a feeling that my next move is to try some extra openings somewhere (unless Lawsy finds a solution first)

Maybe we nee to meet at Simpsons in he spring, or at Lawsys when we go to Oulton to see what we can do.

Trouble is there are only 1-2 days a year that it affects and you can see the results.

No need for any fans at all on track, and pushing air under the car isn't ideal IMO.

Agreed Nathan but would ideally like to exhaust air post radiator. Easiest way is forward angled radiator with sealed bonnet exhaust but major alterations required.

So my issue might still be the blocking of air by the fans and other shite in the way!

I think that certainly contributes but also there's a coolant flow restriction. I've had something done about that and tested for a while but it's not a permanent solution yet and it's not ideal. Will do something to make it ideal if fully proven.

Yes. The engine is too long for starters.
A P60B40 is needed.

Get on it Alex. I'm sure Gorilla will assist.

I'm dropping the m3 at Simpsons for them to reinforce boot and add some more rear cage bits. Will be end of February. I'll give you a shout when I know exact dates.
