Did a carbon vented hood on my RS4 and I don’t run any of the weather stripping in the engine bay, dropped oil temps by around 15-20 degrees consistently. I have the GruppeM intake and it definitely sucks up some heat with the aux radiator. I will definitely be deleting that and maybe even do a wall like you did. Thanks for the info! My supercharger is going on soon too so I want to do everything I can to keep iat’s down. May even do an ice tank in the trunk for the supercharger.
Yeah that aux radiator has to go. Even if the SAI pump is disables it blocks the air that can be going straight up to your air filter. Very curious to see the finish set up with the ice tank in the back
When you did the SAI delete did you also remove the combi valves on each engine bank? They have block off plates on eBay and seems to be basically an egr delete. Until I have my ecu tuned by jackal Motorsport I’ll make some resistor plugs for the SAI and combi valve delete so there is no more codes bugging me.
Exalant video, best one I've seen on hood vents great job.
Thank you 👍😊
Absolutely a great video vary presice

yes, the valves on the back have been removed. at the time the block of plates where made by a buddy of mine.
What is the wall made off
I used aluminum for the wall.
