Carbon fiber diffusers for MINI JCW

Hello,

Here are some pics of CF diffusers that I made.
I was using vacuum infusion process on hand shaped aluminum mould… Sorry but I don’t have any pics during process.
That’s how it looks like

Here diffusers are not coated yet, so they have a bit matte look…

And coated with mounting holes…

hi, how many layers of carbon did you use to achieve that thickeness.

thanks

  • 2 layers of CF,
  • 2 layers of GF,
  • honeycomb,
  • 2 layers of GF,
  • 2 layers of CF

amazing stiffnes for that amount of material!

Really nice job, but I was wondering if that amount of stifness (& materials) are necessary for the forces taken by a diffuser?

no they’re not but I had some waste material(honeycomb)so I insert it, but only because of thickness…
They are 4,5mm thick
