[QUOTE="LargeOrangeFont, post: 7295987, member: 22835"] Here is the deal Steve. Heatsoak and high IAT2 are not really a problem for us. The problem is keeping coolant temps in check. The issue is that the more HP you make, the hotter the engine will run. Also more load (like running the AC) will make the car run hotter. This added heat could throw some of us into limp mode. You product is unique, and may mitigate this problem. The cooler blower may keep temps from rising, and let the blower pull some heat from the heads. I don't think you are going to get any resistance from us regarding the functionality of the product. Like I said, I'm sure it works great, and most will agree with me. The question then becomes, do we use this product as a safety net for our current setup, or use this to allow us to run more boost on the track. If we use this product and then add more boost, if something fails on track at minimum the car goes into limp mode, Worst case the engine pops. If we just add this to our current setup, and it fails, most likely nothing at all will happen while on track. IAT goes higher, but that is about it. In both cases any HP gained using the product only really comes into play on the straights. I'm speaking regarding the majority of us here, at the novice-intermediate level. The Carlos's of the world my think differently about the extra power. [/QUOTE]
