you can use Babel Fish to translate any webpage into english. Just copy the URL of the website you want to translate into the space allotted on the above website.

Remmele used to have aircooled.net as a US distributor, but they had a fallout and now you will have to order it thru Oliver @ Power Tuning Parts in Germany. He can get you anything from Remmele & is more available too.

Thanx.:D

Thanx vujade, I've been looking for a site to translate a couple of sites into English for me... I've wanted to do the carbon fiber ducts from Remelle for a long time ever since I saw them in a VWt magazine article on the German Look. I'm gonna check it out.:D

Got some more news... I figured it out.
I've been contemplating wether or not the "roof cowl" would create wind drag, since it's about 3" above the roof line. I am going to make "wings" that will go in the opening and angle them slightly to reduce drag. The way it's set up, they will look mor elike window shudders than wings... I still need to do some more research and figure out the exact angle to put them at so they will reduce drag but not interfear with the induction prosess...


John

What about recessing the scoop into the roof line. You have plenty of head room so you could afford to loose a few inches in head room for a way cool scoop. Just a thought since it would have less drag than a raised scoop. You would just have to find out how the air behaves over the top of the car at speed to know where to place the inlet of the scoop.:D

I second that :silly: hahaha......

LOLLLLLLLLLLl mwhahahahaaaaaaaa

Great minds think alike.:hehehe:

MWHAHAHAAA:D

Yes they do! But how am I gonna find out how the air will behave over the car without taking it to a shop? I have never done something like that befor!

Got some more news...

I have partialy finished the inlet for the intake. I still have a little wled and some minor body filling, but it's almost done.

I'll see about getting some picture up in the forums through some one else.

Just don't hold your breathe :laugh:

Flat 8 Bug air intake
 

I have been trying to find a picture of it without luck, but in I think it was the 70's Emerson Fittipaldi had a twin engine (3200!) bug eight cylinder. He raced it in Brazil. As I remember the flat windshield was laid back and that became the air intake for induction and cooling for the big eight. Anybody else remember this creation. Just a thought if you could find a picture. Also one of the Road and Track type magazines published a cut-away drawing of the car.


Thanks,

Randy

check out the April issue of Hot VWs. There is a drag car with a roof mounted intake.

Can you please scan in that article and PM it to me. I'm also planning on making an intake into the roof so anny info would be helpfull.

Greetings Wiebrand :laugh:
