no. i would start letting off past 240.

are oil temps staying just a bit cooler with a/c on? or is it just my imagination...

hummm... usually when a car over heats you'd turn the heater onto full blast.

ha, shows what i know? maybe i was just driving a bit easier at the time. i see your point. no way im blasting the heat though, oh man!

ive heard about the a/c thing, but not sure how effective that really is.

Attachment 49414Its a frosty 97 here

I swear I noticed this the last couple of days here as well.... But i hate driving with the A/C on, takes so much power away i feel like...

i must be getting old cause i dont mind the a/c. i rather have comfort than more hot air hitting my face faster with the window down. :icon17:

The bonus power with a/c off is nice, but I really just want to hear it :tup: and the scalding Texas summer breeze is apparently worth it :ugh2:

haha, i hear ya...

same here. heh, the irony... turn on a/c (lose power) to avoid the issue of "losing power" from slightly higher temps. rofl

You're just jealous cuz I can afford a rocket-propelled Z and you can't:gtfo2:.

Living in this hell hole called tx. And having had traditional CAI's on most of my cars. And 4 cars owned in Tx. The best prevention for hotter air from entering the intakes in the summer are the intake hoses. Your car takes a lot longer to bog down than with classic intakes. Power is a little less but more linear when paired with high quality filters like K&N.

:icon17: hahaha, i was waiting how long it would take for you to find this thread and post. :tup:

Get an UPREV tune with Fan Control mod and oil cooler. Will help alot.
