SEAT Leon Splitter on a ZT - Page 12

Villa Villan · 4th February 2011, 23:18

Found this diagram of the Seat splitter, however it's for fitting on a Corsa. Thought it might be of some use, I will be ordering mine very soon and I plan to get it painted. Love the Laguna one too.

Cheers
Tony

Sorry for photo quality, my nokia X6 is rubbish for photos.

Looks a lot lower than it really is but still lets my get up my 28 degree driveway with no hassle, and comes along very nicely with the x-power skirts and such.

Hope you like!

On the 260s site a plan to manufacture undertrays is being investigated
and I am looking at bonnet vents to pull out some of the heat the engine produces

Whilst looking for stuff on aerodynamics over bonnets I found this three part article

part 2 is very relevent to this thread don't just assume this splitter is doing any good it may look pretty but could be having adverse effect on engine cooling

http://autospeed.com/cms/A_2160/article.html

E.g. I wonder what difference (worse or better) to the flow of air from the engine bay the splitter is making

has anyone done any real world tests?

If not then buying one of these gauges and doing some experiments might be a good exercise
Note results are bound to vary significantly between engine types
It would als obe very interesting to see the results for the shorter 1.8T undertray compared to a full length one

I have bought a full size gauge to do the bonnet checks for my own car

Cant see it making any difference, all our cars have undertrays already fitted.
