I have a Mustang GT 2016 automatic with the edelbrock stage 1 kit and a smaller 3" pulley, making 735 hp at the crank. I have an additional oil cooler at the lower grille. I got rid of the rubber lip and the insulation mat at the hood.
I was on a tour in the dolomites (Italy) long winded roads up the mountains with slow 180 turns. After several kilometers I ran into high IAT (140 degrees with 50 degrees outside temperature) and CHT (240 degrees). We were a group of 27 Mustangs so the speed was really moderate (5 - 50 mph).
I plan the next tour in the alpes next month and would be grateful for some suggestions for quick fixes.
I have the following mods on my wish list to address the heat problems on the long run:
- hood vents or other hood (any suggestions?)
- killer chiller for IAT
- ducting (just recently discovered here, looks DIY but would prefer a aftermarket solution)
- I have read about some kind of decoupling for the supercharger but don't remember what it was called.
- not sure if a bigger radiator will help as the speed and the ventilation was very low
- if this all is not enough maybe water/meth just for cooling
Did I miss anything?
