front brake cooling tubes, worth it? on a street car?
i have a 02 ws6, below the blinkers on the front clip there is an empty hole on each side. im debating making some cooling vents to cool the front brakes. i have stock cheap brakes and rotors. and they shake like a **** after a couple hwy runs. do u guys think this type of home made cooling tubes mounted very close to the front rotors will yield any improvements?

worthless on a street car. you never get to a temperature high enough to warrant brake ducts. if you are, youre doing something wrong. the shaking is a warped rotor, or stuck slide pin. also, the holes below the blinkers are nowhere near a good location for brake ducts, regardless.
