[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 16141145, member: 68944"] +100. I’ve been cruising my cobra a little this weekend, and forgot I’d taken the thermostat out for a fully open unit last summer. I’m sitting there on the freeway at 150° coolant temp 10 minutes into a drive with 75psi of oil pressure at very light throttle... 91 octane pump gas and 10psi too. My buddys like “floor it it’s gonna rip” I’m like “no. Oil and heads are way to cold, cylinders aren’t going to fully burn and the heads won’t fully expel.” “Floor it, it’ll make so much power right now being so cold outside!!!” “No, it makes the most power when the engine is at operating temp and the inlet air is 32.1°. Right now it would just churn and lurch through boost like a hiccuping alcoholic” “Floor it!!!” He drives a beat up charger Srt8... that runs like it needs a new fuel pump. And an oil change.
