[QUOTE="PistolWhip, post: 8312378, member: 30361"] The aftermarket H/E's don't really do much for lowering IAT2 temps considerably unless you run on road courses where heat is a major issue on all fronts. For road race guys, I think they need to take advantage of every little bit of cooling help they can get. The larger surface area gives H/E a more efficient means of dissipating excessive temps built up from long on gas and off gas laps. I don't road race at all. I noticed about an average of a 3-5* drop in temps which I attribute more to the increased volume of coolant than to the actual larger surface area. This was figured from about a month of data logging with the stock H/E and than another month with the LFP dual pass. I noticed about another 2 or 3* average drop when I added the larger True Forged ice box which again I attribute to more coolant volume. However, the TF tank is very large and can hold allot of ice. It has a huge opening which makes packing it easy. It also has a petcock on the bottom of it so I can easily drain some coolant out of it after each run to make room for more ice. [/QUOTE]
