Took some preliminary temperature measurements last night. Six degrees difference between the VID and IAT readings! First guess is that VID is wrong.
Code:
Time   T/C  VID  IAT  Water
00:00  74   71   76   x
02:00  67   64   71   85
03:00  67   63   69   80
04:00  65   61   67   78
11:00  62   58   64   62
Stock setup. No mods made.
Had several fans blowing on radiator, air intake opening (removed filler plate between radiator support and bumper cover), and MAF area.
Unmounted ambient temp sensor and placed it and T/C together.
Car had to be started to get IAT and water temps.
T/C display was calibrated about 10 years ago, so absolute value may be off, but relative readings should be good. Will calibrate when I can find a standard.
Just curious, but what kind of insulation did you end up going with?
