New A110 improved cooling

Postby bcr5784 » Sun Jun 21, 2020 8:18 am

I understand that the A110S and all later variants have modified wheel arches which make the cooling more efficient. Could someone post a picture please. It appears that the new arches are a direct replacement - but it may be a mod that I can make with my trusty dremel. Sounds like a good mod to make - certainly if you intend to track the car or have a remap.I'm not sure whether it is the front or rear arches - but the FAR seem to think it is the front ones.

Interesting, that looks like a production change as I'm pretty sure mine (Pure, arrived Nov '19) has those larger vents.

Yes the FAR says that they were introduced with the S and applied to all models thereafter. The old liner is said to be no longer available. Looks like a fairly straightforward, even DIY upgrade. Not yet clear how much the bits cost.

A couple of posts later it gives part numbers and mentions Eur130, although not sure if for 1 or both.
