[QUOTE="Bad Company, post: 17024782, member: 141815"] Here is a data log of Shelby running at the Texas Mile if you look closely the temperatures of the intake air are listed twice. The one that is showing extremely high at 462*F is under the supercharger before it passes through the intercooler. The second intake air temperature reading was taken after the air passed through the intercooler and is reading 152*F. That is a 310*F difference. To cool the air temperatures that much the trunk tank water temperature was 40*F. The other things in the intercooler and HE system that are modified is the intercooler was not a stock one and was a single pass using -20 line entering the rear, the two ports in the front are now exits for the coolant and go through a modified Shelby America HE that has been converted to single pass. Coolant exits the HE and returns to the tank again in a -20 hose. Coolant volume moving throughout the system is roughly 3 times more than a stock car. The car was a 12:1 compression engine running on methanol. This data log was taken in 2014 before KB came out with the Biggin Intercooler which actually has slightly larger opening if you modify the intake manifold correctly. The driver of this car was going through the licensing process and this pass was limited to 200mph. He was doing 209 at the half mile mark and lifted this is why the graphs look as if he shifted up to 6th gear. When he lifted the car slowed dramatically due to the air resistance and he got back in the throttle to get to the speed he needed for the next step up in the licensing process. Unfortunately after this run it started to rain and the event was cancelled for the rest of the weekend. Shawn felt the car would have been faster than 240mph if it had ever gone back to the event for another attempt, the owner decided he didn't want to pursue any attempts at higher speeds. [/QUOTE]
