what is the stuff on the roof that looks like an array of satellite antennas?

 

Vortex Generators

Looks pretty good! I like the slotted covers/intakes replacing the headlights. Something about the headlights in the grill bugs me though...not sure what it is. maybe if they were retractable, like the old Chargers and Courgars, it'd sit better with me. But....still looks mean! And that's really all that matters!


What's the point of the vortex generators? I understand why they're on aircraft: to help keep air flowing over control surfaces during a stall. But....Are they really going to help redirect air onto the spoiler of an automobile...? I've not noticed them on real fast cars, like F1 racers, so are they actually effective? Or they on there for windtunnel tests or something?

 

Wouldn't that intake suck in a lot of water if you were driving at freeway speeds during heavy rain?

 

Got any better pics of the mirrors? The only pic I saw was this one:


It's not on their main page. Prices? Availability?

 

Saw that car and their products yesterday. Very high quality, both the roll cage and strut tower brace are very very nice pieces. Want both for my car. The strut brace is incredibly light. They are really Good guys too, talk to Corey.

 

I am running out the door right now but when I get back I will see if I can answer any and all questions, but the mirrors arent built yet, they are currently in production and will hopefully be done soon.

 

IMHO:

Relocated headlight grille:

Vortex generators:

STB:

Rear spoiler:

 

From Agent 47 about this:

"In basic terms the VGs create vortices that clean up the air traveling down the rear window and make it stick to the surface of your car. Normally there is alot of dirty air and turbulence on top of your trunk but these straighten the airflow and make it more effective on your spoiler. We have tested these ourselves and they work. If they didnt work we wouldnt have put something so wild and ricish on our car. Ya know?"

 

From Agent 47:

"We will have drain holes to let any excess water drain out of the funnel and airbox. Moisture in your air/fuel mixture only helps performance."

That cage is sweet! And it doesnt need door panel replacements.

The headlights look tiny in the grill.

Does the STB clear a roots/twin screw supercharger?

 

Looks like it was designed by Cylons.......

 

How do those headlight pieces work? Can they be used with a stock bumper without any major modifications or are the entire lights different?

 

That cage looks veryy nice

 

No it doesnt need a door panel replacement, just a new cover to the speaker, which I believe the kit will come with those

dont know yet if it will clear, they will test and messure as they get some, probably on mine as soon as I get my SC and if not then they said they can make one that does.

 

They had those lights custom made and they are DOT approved headlights, no modifications are needed to the stock bumper, both the new grill and the gills are designed to fit the stock bumper.

 

Do you know if the mirrors are motorized and utilize the factory switch on the driver door?

 

those mirrors look kinda photoshopped. and also the other pics he posted do not ahve them on it. However, are they going to produce them? and what he asked
