Mazdaspeed front bumper for the track

If you had a Mazdaspeed front bumper, would you see any benefits when tracking the car?

I'm thinking, better engine cooling or better air flow for brake cooling.


Also, since the Mazdaspeed bumper requires special brackets to mount the fog lamps, is there a way to delete the fog lamps and somehow use that space for brake ducting?

the bumper comes without foglights, so if you do not want them you do not have to purchase and install the bracket. I currently have the bumper without the fogs or bracket. As for brake ducting, there's always a way, but you'll have to custom tube it yourself.

i've remember hearing somewhere that it helps if you track it with a turbo since it increase airflow to the intercooler.
