Check out these new hood louver panels from Singular Motorsports. Born from the race track by Miataturbo.net member ThePass, they are the result of his extensive research and development program to keep his own turbocharged time-attack Miata cool in the summer heat. These CNC cut hood louvers enable NA and NB owners to convert their original equipment hood into a racing hood. The primary benefits are improved radiator efficiency and reduced lift at high speed. They look pretty cool, too!
The louvers panels ship flat and you must bend the louver vents yourself to the correct angle, cut the holes in your hood using the supplied template, drill mounting holes and secure with the supplied hardware.
Key Features:
- Reduces under hood pressure by 50%
- Specifically designed for the NA & NB Miata hood
- Retains hood rigidity and the use of the stock hood latch
- Increases engine cooling capability
- Decreases lift on the front of the car
- Backed by data - developed through pressure and flow testing
- Outperforms every hood vent option tested (by a lot)
- Designed and produced in the USA
What you get:
- Precision waterjet aluminum louvers
- Removeable gurney flaps (can swap them on/off at the track)
- Stainless steel mounting hardware
- Rubber trim to cover the cut edge for a clean look
- Vinyl cut template
The first batch sold out in minutes but there are plans to manufacture more soon for regular purchase. Initial price is $140 and they come unfinished so you can leave them bare metal or you can paint / powdercoat them to suit. I think anodized finish treatment would be very cool! You can easily accomplish this at home with a bucket of electrolyte solution, DC power supply and some color dye.
