Extended periods of aggressive driving causes the amount of heat in the rotors to build up, & as the temperature of the rotors increase, the metal begins to expand. With solid rotors, this can lead to numerous issues such as warping of the rotors, unexpected cracking along the inner "ring" or friction surfaces, & increased brake fade. Turner's TrackSport rotors feature a full floating two-piece design & slotted grooves to allow smooth, consistent braking force & easy expulsion of gases & dust created by the brake pads & rotors under heavy braking.

This configuration produces an exhilarating sound when lifting off the throttle. The airflow pattern as air exits the filter creates a unique turbo flutter sound, adding to the excitement of the driving experience.

Leveraging the existing internal structure of the hood as a blueprint, these vents offer a straightforward enhancement for any MK7 / MK7.5 enthusiast keen on maintaining lower engine bay temperatures and maximizing their on-track experience.
