I think the 997 GT3 had vents behind the rads allowing air to flow through and into the wheelwell. Remember air going through the body creates drag reducing efficiency, especially over 50 MPH. Venting in and through the frunk seems crazy... If the car's not running hot, why mess with the aero? If it's lifting at speed or you're cooking your brakes then something needs changed. I had a Civic SI that I lowered and at around 80 MPH it actually OVERsteered because of it. If you occasionally get near the limit over 50 MPH changes to the aero can become REAL!
