Stillen G3, FI CBE and EcuTek Reveiw

Honestly, you are right on the line at 260F and the ECU is probably holding back a bit at that temp. For reference, I run ACS Roval at 2:08 with no power mods (stock intake and exhaust). My temps peak at 230. We're in January, but you can imagine running ACS in July when it's 90F ambient -- you would hit full limp mode (3000 RPM restriction) very quickly.

Totally agree! high ambient temps will definitely change your oil temps for sure. I only like to track when its cooler out though, better on all aspects of the car in my opinion.

Def should put that note in there though that you will need one tracking during the summer. Or could you imagine chuckwalla in the summer with it being over 110 degrees sometimes.

Yeah, the first time I ran Buttonwillow, it was 103F, I didn't have an oil cooler, and I buried the needle at 300F! I had to limp back to the paddock at 30MPH, LOL!

LOL! That's kinda like the "walk of shame" but for cars
