[QUOTE="Van@RevanRacing, post: 9028943, member: 69847"] The rear catch can is a good idea. I had to battle that in the very beginning. Even worse is the differential fluid getting on the inside of the right rear tire. The rear end will come around quick. If you can, I would also recommend a catch can for the tranny as well. I run one because the tranny fluid heats up and as it does it spits out as well and will hit the exhaust. You'll get puffs of white smoke which could eventually lead to a Mechanical Black Flag (Meatball). The trans fluid can get on the tires too which can make for some slick track conditions. The stock radiator functions well but it's all a matter of boost and horsepower level. Even with a stock blower I could get the ECT up to 250+ degrees at Sebring. That was with a 160 TSTAT in place too. If you do go out to a road course try draining the radiator and flushing out the heads and refilling with water and water wetter and mabye a couple of cups of anti-freeze. That will really help. Especially if it's a once in a while type of thing. You can also try running without a TSTAT on the road course. That can actually help cool it down a little bit as well. [/QUOTE]
