Modshack #3: Mark 2 TTDA (TwinTubeDynamicAirbox)

After proving the viability of the pressurized airbox I decided to improve on the materials used with the goal to reduce any heat issues that would be a problem with the Tin can come summer. I sourced some larger diameter (7.5 inch) Phenolic tube (model rocket parts) which will be wrapped in Koolmat and then covered in Carbon Fiber. his should be strong, look very cool, and be very efficient thermally.
