Outmotoring brake duct review?

Has anyone bought the Outmotoring brake duct kit? It looks good but wanted to see how the install/fit went. I have a Wilwood 11.75 BBK; will this fit it? Thanks in advance for your help!

Don't have it myself yet, but the guys who make it are just up the road from me. I've seen it on their car and several others, it's a great kit!

That's the sneed kit. Looks very good, I'm thinking of getting it myself--it directs air directly to the hub; veined brakes direct air from the inside out, and these keep with that principle.

I do not like that kit. It works bad with 17" wheels and esp if you are lowered. It also rubs against the tires when you are running a high offset. I had to take the hose off several times and duct tape it because it was ripped at multiple places. Eventually one was too damaged and I threw one hoes in the garbage. There is a kit that I think would work a lot better on sale in the market place now.
