    Pranav,

    A fatal flaw with your questioning regards the brake ducts IMO. You should have specified what type of spindle ducts were being run as well, i.e. the kind of thing where a hose blows at the rotor, or the more proper setup where a plate seals off the inside of the rotor and the duct pressurizes it and forces more air through. I know in the case of the 4th gen Camaros either is an option and depending on the creativity of the car builder this could span all platforms and have a real impact on brake mushiness, effectiveness, longevity, pad and fluid selection.

    I have the Bling-fab ones that seal off the insides of the rotor and blow on the insides.

    Honestly judging from tire booger build up that would always be trapped between the rotor and duct, having the duct inlets straight shot off the radiator air dam worked the best vs my headlight intakes now with longer hose and more bends. NACA ducts in the fog light hole areas will fix that.
