A 15 degree difference in engine temp at the track can cost you a couple of tenths easily on your e.t.
The next trick is to get the engine temp to actually stay down at the thermostat temp, and that's where a fan switch or reprogramming comes in, so the fan comes on too. Otherwise, in traffic or a staging lane, the temp still comes up to 210 or so, until the pcm decides to turn the fan on.\'98 A4 Camaro v6->v8 conversion, and STS kit next<br />v6: 13.6 Powerdyne, 13.2 150 shot, 13.8 120 shot, 14.3 85 shot, 15.7 stock<br />v8(na): 12.18@113, 392rwhp<br />Moderator on <a href=\"http://www.mtfba.org\" target=\"_blank\">www.mtfba.org</a> and <a href=\"http://www.frrax.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.frrax.com</a> (Road Race & Autocross)<br /><a href=\"http://community.webshots.com/user/johnduncan10\" target=\"_blank\">Car pics</a>, <a href=\"http://www.trscca.com\" target=\"_blank\">TN Region SCCA</a>
