Was at Z1motorsports at opening. Got the 34 row cooler installed with the 160F plate. I didn't get to do too much on the way back, but since I had the old Note 4 up with Torque, I got a pretty good look at the new characteristics:

On the way down it was about 50F outside and after the oil matched up the coolant at 183F it drifted up to around 195F in the 50 mins or so it took me to get there.

On the way back it was 67F and I was less sedate. When the plate opened it actually dragged coolant under thermostat trigger and ran at 179F for a bit. On surface streets once I got off the highway I couldn't get it to break 200F but there was enough traffic I couldn't really get a good test in.

I'm going to have to plan a bit, make sure I get things nice and warm and then take some well known roads not dropping revs under 5k to get a good feel (finally!!) for how the car behaves at peak power.

The surge from 5k to red is loads of fun, I look forward to a lot more of that.

Thanks to the good folks of Z1motorsports.

Have fun and be safe y'all.
