But then wouldnt the cruising temps be higher too. They r not tho. At red light its at 129 then when i move its at 120. When wot its at 150-165ish

My IAT's cruising in 90-100-degree Tx heat is around 91-98. Stuck at a light the highest I've seen is 120 but on average 112-116.
Killer Chiller & larger expansion tank with distiller water & Water Wetter in the tank.

Do you mean your IAT or IAT2?
My actual IAT's are always just a few degrees above ambient when cruising...But the IAT2 temps will be about 30-35 degrees higher. I was looking at the Killer Chiller as well and two different shops told me they suck for street cars but with no reasoning behind their comments. I would think a Killer Chiller could be a huge benefit for keeping that fluid cold.

IAT2's.
My boy rabbit's CTSV IAT2 is around the 75-80 degree point after a dyno pull but then quickly goes down to 68-70 degrees after.
He showed me on his iPad during the pulls. Crazy. Only thing diff is he has the KC Drag Setup. I'm thinking about buying the extra parts to convert mine over.

I've had my KC on for over a year and enjoying the benefits during 150-mph highway pulls.
Shops told me that too but I'm a rebel..
My car makes 827/809 with a 2.9 Whipple on e85 with the KC.

This is how I tapped into my coolant system for the KB lines
I've had my Killer Chiller for almost 4 years now. The KC works better than any heat exchanger you can buy, with or without fans. My car is a 100% street car. Whatever shop told you that was just spouting off some BS they heard somewhere. That said, I believe the '03/'04 Cobras (and Lightnings) that had KCs installed would sometimes have issues, but that was because those cars had crappy A/C systems to begin with. The only minor issue there is with the KC [on the GT500] is that, with larger intercooler reservoirs, it takes longer for the air to get cold in the cabin because the A/C system is chilling all that fluid in the heat exchanger, intercooler, reservoir and hoses. If you keep the stock reservoir, there would probably be zero issue whatsoever.
Even on 100*+ days, I have zero issue with the cabin getting and staying nice and cool. I keep my temp between 70 and 72. (72 when the cabin gets too cold after driving for a while.)
Awesome info...I think I am leaning on going this route. Was also looking at methanol but the KC seems like it has better benefits overall for my intended use.
Are you spraying pre-supercharger?
not setup yet. But yes, I will spraying at the intake.
That was my original plan too, but then Julio at alkycontrol.com said this:
"...the IAT tables post blower won't be impacted shooting through the blower. Yes you can run more aggressive timing tables and program spark table to not pull timing.. but it won't decrease IAT's. I make a lot of kits for PD blowers. Perfect example is the CTSV, ZR1, ZL1 from GM."
So that put me back at square one and looking at the options again, including KC. He said he can make it work with a custom setup, but I believe he wants to spray it post blower.

ya, many people claim it won't drop IATs with PD blowers. I need the meth due to shitty California gas. This article is a good read : http://www.svtperformance.com/2014/09/02/tech-gt500-water-meth-test/
they state the case temp dropped 70 degrees.
Yup, I've seen that article and many other threads on the subject. Enough that I am starting to get a headache from information overload. In the end, it seems there are two camps and both disagree with each other. Makes things more complicated for the end users, IMO. I mean, how can one expert claim it doesnt work very well and then another company show that it does...and how much of it is marketing?
I've decided to get the 170* stat, keep my H/E, and either go with KC or Methanol. The last two, I have not decided...I keep going back and forth. I dont really want to add more power, just keep what I've got and not have my car pull timing for 6-7 months out of the year when it gets hot down here.

meth won't go quick if you have a larger tank.
and the KC won't give you 100+ octane :coolman:
I'm sold on methanol injection. Just gotta get rid of some guns first. Legally of course
I'm going with the KC. Probably the best option for me at this time.
nice job keepinng the thread on track guys.... haha. OP already has a dual fan heat exchanger so he probably isnt going with the killer chiller.
