Had a thought on this so made the changes according but what are others thoughts on the following..
Ph1 front grill looks pretty restrictive to air flow but opeing out and shoving more air into the front surely requires more air to be escaping from the back of the engine bay to increase flow?
So what I have done is open out the cutouts in the front grill to get more high pressure air in and removed the rubber sealing strips at the back of the engine bay to let more air (hopefully warm) out.
The only flaw I can see is if the engine bay air pressure is lower than that at the base of the windscreen - which would cause air to enter the engine bay at the back and hinder flow from front to back?
Have more temp sensor in position so will report back in due course anyhow...
