[QUOTE="J.Kincaid, post: 15034310, member: 59110"] I know I'm biased, but I guarantee you'll love this system. I've been doing this for 15 years and even I'm impressed with the GT500 kit. lol Those temps were taken at idle inside the garage, so minimum load. our test car has no heat exchanger, and it's pulley'd for 23.5 pounds of boost. I was impressed with this setup...driving around we saw temps at ambient or lower. When we came to a light the temps would go up about 5 degrees above ambient, and then come back down when we started going again. We stopped for about 30 minutes and when we fired it up it was at 157 degrees. as soon as we started moving it dropped right back down to 100 and lower. When we went WOT the temps dipped down below ambient and then shot up a little when we got out off the throttle. Then they drop right back down again. The sensor for the IAT-2 is connected to a very hot lower intake manifold and is seeing the temp of the engine too. when you give it a little gas it allows a larger mass of chilled air across it, so that's why the temps drop at WOT. Lol I think we all had ideas like that when we were young. I remember when I was a teen I thought I could jump off the roof of a house with an umbrella and float down to the ground. lol I wanted to put some stuff up tonight, but the guy in charge of putting up the pics and vids says its too much stuff and will take a little more time to edit down so people can watch it. So data is coming very soon! Very well put! That's why I recommend a larger reservoir for more fluid reserve. It's like a heatsink...the bigger the heatsink the more heat energy it can dissipate, and the longer it takes to heat it up. Over the years I've found that 3.5 gallons is pretty much the max, and 1.5 gallon is pretty much the min as far as overall IC fluid capacity. [/QUOTE]
