Canyon driving will yield high 90s IAT and with accel bursts IAT will be around 100-110. It would be nice to have IAT be around <90. Coolant temp is around 182.
I'm pretty sure putting a heatshield between the engine and intercooler will help also. |
Thanks Ara! I have some info from some street driving too.. temps are nowhere near that high. That's why the real test is a track day... it's really impossible to have the engine under 100% throttle on the street for such a large duty cycle. There's probably room for improvement... I just installed catch cans last week, so my intercooler is coated with an oily film from running 20k miles without them. If I was able to clean the I/C out, it might cool the charge even more...
