Air diverter w/ sprayer vs. pulley - which will be more effective during FL summer?
Summer's just about here in FL, and I have a couple track days and autocrosses lined up. I'm trying to decide between Alta's V2 air diverter and 15% pulley. I'm sure pulley's effects will be cancelled out after several sessions at 90+ degree ambient temps, but I'm not sure as to how well the diverter will keep underhood heat in check. What do you guys think will be more beneficial? Pricewise, it would make more sense to buy the 15% and then diverter.

That's a tough one, I saved up a bit and ended up getting the IC diverter shortly after the pulley, and both are great for the track. Especially for the Florida heat which I'm combating as well. There is a noticable difference after five or six hot laps and using the diverter to help cool you down. Which track days and where if you don't mind my asking? I'm always looking for more meets, I'm in Jensen Beach/PSL, exactly between Orlando and Miami.
Thanks for the opinions guys. I'm leaning towards the pulley right now, because I may spring for a full IC instead of just a diverter later on.
Jazz042 - Right now I'm looking at Sebring on 6/10 with Chin and perhaps the on 6/16-17 wth PBOC as well. Auto-xing isn't really my thing, but I'm going to an SCCA one at Sebring on 6/2. Hope to see you at the track some time.
