The title is the question.
I know what to look for with water-cooled stuff. I have no experience with air-cooled stuff yet... What say you? Is there a normal range? A never exceed number? Anyone ever use 4 thermocouples? Was there any noticeable difference (#3 is of concern to me)? Thoughts, tips, any data would be greatly appreciated! |

When I was racing, I was ok with my EGTs going up to about 1375F at full throttle, end of straightaway. Anything higher and I wanted to go up a jet size. 1350F was preferred. 1200F is super rich and probably giving up a lot of power. @ChrisFoley Thank you SOOO much! That's the data I was looking for... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) The stuff you sell is more "bespoke" than any other vendor I'm aware of. The engineering and logic look flawless IMO. Lots of your stuff looks "should have done it this way from the get-go, Porsche!" I recently described the pressure relief valve in another thread as "Must have at ANY price!" and the fact that it was only $90 made it "freaking easy to swallow." Your exhaust systems are ART in my book... I'm going to be a customer of yours soon! My wish list: Fire wall bushing Bad assed pressure relief valve. Fuel lines Throttle kit for IDFs Trailing arm brackets Side shift linkage Bunch of reinforcement crap Clutch pulley bracket OH CRAP! you've solved another problem for me with your oil cooler kit #3. New stuff! I have questions about that... PM will be sent And, If I build up a big T4 one of your exhaust systems will be a requirement! Wouldn't surprise me to be in 10K with Tangerine Racing... Thanks again Rick |
