Hood Louver Kit - Subaru WRX/STI (GR / GV)
OVERVIEW
The Verus Engineering Hood Louver Kit for the GR/GV WRX and STI helps reduce engine bay heat and pressure. During the design process; we wanted to utilize the OEM hood to reduce cost and complexity. Utilizing CFD pressure plots to properly place the louvers and scan data to design units that flow with the OE hood's contours, we developed a set of louvers that are functional and look great.
This hood louver kit is for the WRX/STI owner looking for a purposely placed, built, and tested louver kit.

Science:
Utilizing CFD, we were able to place the louvers in an area of low pressure. This improves the evacuation and function of our hood louvers. Our hood vents dramatically decrease underhood temps by relieving hot air from the engine bay and cooling system. These louvers will also reduce pressure build-up in the engine bay, also known as hood flutter. The side benefit would be a slight increase in front-end downforce. It is highly recommended to use the supplied wickers to increase evacuation.
