how?
i dont want a vent really, but there isnt enough room for ducting as i have aircon
will the engine run properly without extra airflow to the TBs?
i dont wanna kill it, but i really dont want a gay scooby vent

battery in boot, use nova header in front wing space then you have loads of room.
P.S aircon is gay and will suck power

Mounts pretty far forward, not see the red 2L TB's corsa at PV on the corsa-b stand then?
That or mount the std one where the battery used to be, then opens things up.
Battery can be in spare wheel well or the flat bit to the left or even behind the passanger in the rear footwell if you have no interior
air-con = wind down window

They're designed to comtrol the flow of air, not just get loads of air in like a normal vent

They're designed to vacuum hot air out the engine bay. Same net benefit as a vent not directly over the TBs.

i was thinking F50 with GTiR behind it, then a pair of scoob ones at the back, sided by side, 2 rows of GSI ones down the sides, vented wings and louvres all over the remaining space
