UTR Titanium Radiator Cooling Plate NEW Type-2

G35 Coupe Titanium Radiator Plate.
Adding the Ti Radiator plate helps improve cooling efficiency by allowing more air flow into the radiator, thus reducing operating temperatures while enhancing your engine bay with a custom look!

Type-2

Do you have any evidence that this actually reduces operating temperatures?

Unfortunately, no actual tests were performed by us. But in theory, should help reduce operating temps. And it looks real nice!

Any estimations based on theory of what percentage change in operating temperature this gives?

IMO, this plate will not give a measureable change in operating temperature. Whose to say that the radiator needs additonal flow, and that the flow possibly being diverted could be more beneficial flowing over the top of the engine anyway? This is not clear at all.

Personally, I would just market it for show for those that think it looks nice, not as a performance piece.

But if you have any data to counter my intuitive claims then I'm all for it.

If anything why don't yall build a cold air box similar to arc but cheaper that people can use with short ram intakes and jwt pop charger...there is a huge sector of members that have either setup...that would be a useful product

Is the CF version made completely out of CF or just a cf overlay?
