Whipple Time

[Mikeyd56]

If I recall it was about 200. It's strange though. Say I give her some gas and shift about at 5k the temps drop to like 210. It's when I'm just driving normally in 6th gear around 55 60 it will slowly raise up to 230ish.

I've been seeing 220-230 just going 65 on the highway it seems hotter than before

Stock is much higher then that. Stock thermostat is 192 and they run 8-12 higher then the thermostat. The heads, depending on water pump speed vs BTU's created will vary in temp. Rev up and get the pump circulating faster will result in lower temps.

Yea as soon as I hit the throttle temp drops.

 

[gsxr1300]

Can we swap out the Tstat for a lower temp one?

 

[Whipple SC]

It's already a 160. Could put a bigger radiator in. But the cal works with all temps so it modifies what's needed.

Ok thanks I didn't know one in the kit.

This...your RPMs are lower when cruising...you will also notice if you put it in neutral and just coast from a high speed you will see your temps rise until you re-engage the transmission and get the revs up. It's also a pretty fast way to cool the engine down.

My kit gets here Thursday. Long tubes arrive tomorrow and then arh kit should be in by mid next week. Car is currently at dealer getting new transmission and rxt installed and if all goes well I'll have it back for the weekend. I'll probably do the install by taking a half day Thursday to set up my work area and then dive in all day/night from through Sunday with some friends popping in here and there. I'm going to do a build thread soon so let me know what you want to see/know. Feel like a kid the week of Christmas

Awesome!

Awesome Dan!

Anyone have any track numbers for these cars aside from shop cars? Haven't seen many track times out of twin screw setups.

So I remember hearing back that if we sent in our PCM to whipple the new update tune helps with your dual fans. I mean I wish they would kick on when it was running hot. They are constantly on. Even if if the car is off and i push the clutch all the way in they are on and the they cycle on and off still like I said in a earlier post.

The only difference is there cycled on by RPM vs just ignition on. But you need the fans to run, especially at low speeds, that's the main purpose of them. The updated cals have this ability but we do not have all the wiring/pigtails needed to make it plug and play just yet.
