so since you got your S&R kit installed, have you had a lot of heat soak issues? i always see nice numbers but i would put this on my DD soooo jw hows everyday use been for this kit??
*** and any one had any issues with vented hoods and top mount?? :icon14: but kit looks clean for sure :tup: |
No heat soak issues for me. The GTR vents on my seibon cf hood are functioning like a champ. The heat blanket is holding up extremely well here in Florida. No issues whatsoever so far. Loving the kit.

Engine heat stays below half.. I have a 32 block oil cooler so even at full boost for an extended period my oil temps don't go over 215F in 80 degree weather. Off boost they cool down to about 190.

I'll be picking my car up Saturday and driving home to Nashville TN so I'll let you know about my experience. I also will have the 34 row oil cooler on mine.

Nice figures mate, I think it's important for everyone to keep track of the numbers/long term time frame people are running the same numbers to evaluate the stock block HP/TQ numbers.
I'm awaiting my new GTM kit to start pushing it here in Aus, will start with the basic 10-11psi for a few months then onto E85, as it's readily available in my area, there is no problems with me running it, company who will do my install is a "pro-tuner" according to the UpRev website. E85 will come within 1-2 months really. As far as I've seen there is no real limit as far as HP/TQ on the cars from the forums and have been following since 2009, most people are saying safe 500RWHP/400-500TQ but there's not much evidence either for or against this, so will push and see what we can do. |

Well it's the end of July and she's still holding up like a champ. Beat out one of those new corvettes Last night!!! He ended up living in the same neighborhood as me and he was literally red faced when he got out of the car hahahahaha

AdobePhil - Are you running N20 and your turbo setup? If so, what size of shot?
|
hehe thats funny about the new vette i also ran into one over the weekend and kicked his azz the guy could not hang was really upset when i slowed down and let him pass me turbo z for the win
|
also i have to say since i got a new tune my car is running alittle richer then before but i also noticed its running a little hotter then i would like i am hitting 220-230 on 85-90 degree weather under boost so i am going to try and find a way to push air on to the oil cooler since its behind the fmic
and maybe a good vented hood would help |

I had the setup from before I had the turbo was running a 200 shot; but I screwed around with my timing in the tune too much so I ended up blowing the engine. |
