motor cooling solution
i made it to run with the WTF 40mm motor. it mounts the fan on the motor and still provides some air channels. all the motor vents ive seen so far (aside from the heatsink ones) just seal the air on the motor pretty much making the whole thing useless since the air doesn't move anywhere if its sealed off.
This part here goes on top of the fan. basically forcing the fan to only draw air from outside instead of circulating the hot air inside. (the logo is just my company name)
the intent was also to be able to run the car with a chassis cover and have the cover sandwiched between the vent and the fan, forcing outside cool air. this worked as well but i got tired of the velcros coming off so i no longer use the chassis cover.
fitment test
hole cut, and the vent has a snap feature so it snaps to the body and doesn't move unless you want to remove it.
everything is measured to stock body height (in this picture, my body height is a little different since i was testing something else at the moment). the vent falls right on the fan and draws air from outside.
results based on my measurements were 15 to 20 degrees cooler with the fan.
