probably. There was a unreliable company or person selling them before. They would/are great for track but on DD driving I was told it gets beat up or ripped off easy because it hangs so low. So if you put this on for a 1/4 drag or maybe track day you'd be great...as long as it came off for street use. But idk how low this one hangs.

so this is going to help lower temps at the track by basically funneling the air to the heat exchanger? this may be something to look at in the spring when the supercharger gets installed.

the theory behind it, is that its lower to direct more air from below to the radiator/HE. I dont know about lowering temps, but I bet you may see cooler temps more consistently with more pulls.

You'll have to pull the radiator up to get the stock one out.

I don't have any experience with this product, so I don't have much to share.

Could you conjure up one of your associates that does have some experience with it?

I'd like to see how low it sits and if it's a reasonable part for a lowered daily driven vehicle.

You got it! Ice box is the best solution for that. Or killer chiller. I wouldn't buy it for just added cooling, but appearance as well. I always like aftermarket airdams.
