...The new headers (built by a pro) will be stainless 2.25 inch tubes into merge collectors and a 3.5 inch X-pipe. BTW, did anybody notice the "up-angled" tail pipe exits on the C 8R? Looks like they are doing that to create a low pressure area above the diffuser to help its efficiency.

You also need to account for the velocity of the inlet air. Here is an inlet diffuser I helped design and my son built for a 300 mph Bonneville Salt Flat car. We were able to shrink the inlet down even smaller (2 inches vertical) to get 22% of the radiator surface area. This reduced drag and...

Here are a couple of shots of the exit air louvers in the diffuser that I mentioned in an earlier post. The larger openings are where the exhaust exits.

Some time back in one of the road race bodies (can't remember which) guys were dumping the exhaust into/under the diffuser with some success. It got outlawed because when you let off the throttle you change the exhaust pressure and ultimately the downforce which resulted in loss of control in...

Okay, more aero stuff. On my 56 I built carbon fiber "tunnels" - actually long diffuser tunnels - between the frame rails and the outer rocker panel. They start with a rounded fender well close-out fairing which blends into the tunnel. (note, there are a couple of pieces not installed in...

...the vent. BTW, the duct work for the oil cooler starts with air taken from above the radiator (hard to do on a C-3) and runs through a diffuser of sorts to expand the volume prior to the cooler, and then "nozzle" duct work to the fender vent exit. This is the P-51 "Meredith Effect" that...

...in the upper right is one of the brake cooling inlets inside the grill of my 56. The last picture is my brothers 51 Jag (with C6 suspension and a stout, injected LS) for which I am getting ready to build a complete carbon fiber duct/diffuser from the grill opening to the radiator. Pappy Pappy

I had the motor out of my 62 a while back to do some engine bay clean-up, and decided I would finish the carbon fiber grill-to-radiator duct/diffuser that I started last year. The purpose is to keep the airflow more laminar for engine cooling improvement (just in case a bigger motor ends up...

Hey Kid, It is a 2016 Viper ACR with the extreme aero package. 645 HP, big Brembo CCBs, and a big wing/splitter/diffuser. It has an even bigger splitter extension and vertical diffuser extensions that are not installed in these photos - not enough ground clearance for street driving. I...

Ive been planning to make some kind of rear diffuser for a while now. Got most of my plans together and started yesterday... Heres what Ive got so far: One of the tunnels out of the mold and roughly shaped. Im going to add a few more layers of glass on it still. The rear valance is cut up about...

...reasonable that this area would contribute to the front end lift. Given that this area (actually, a volume) in front of the radiator is a diffuser, changing high velocity air into pressure (to increase efficiency of airflow through all the radiator fins), the slight pressure gain over a large...

...I was thinking about making my car into a drifter with a bunch of carbon fiber goodies, front splitter, spoiler, side skirts, and rear diffuser. Or go the pro-touring direction with some very cool looking pro-touring seats that zipsportscars.com offers, lowering it down a few inches w/ some...
