    When there begins to be a void in the airstream near the base of the windscreen -isn't that area low pressure?
    What you are seeing is the velocity profile, zero speed = higher pressure pushing up that smoke stream.



    As you can see in this case on probe there is a low pressure spot right after radiator which would be ideal for gt500 or evo style vent.

                This is beautiful work! Great job, man! Don't come out on PT much anymore, but I should!

                I'm loving the COP setup. I'm using the Honda COP setup with MS3-Pro, and helped Sanjay set his up the same way. Very similar to yours.

                Any recent updates?

                  Car is hasn't exploded yet Going to remake the intake manifold. During welding the flanges warped and I've never been entirely happy about that. It was skimmed to make it true, but the fuel rail never fit the same way. The rx7 oil cooler along with improving the coolant hoses has solved the heating problems Very tight for space for manifold but I knew that from the start. So much fun feeling a KL kick the back end out!
