great!

Nice job

[@hyde_official]

one of the best mods for sure!

[@TheRealBeast-SL]

Hi, Thank you for your video! Was wondering if it doesn't cause any problems because you sealed the hose? For circulation as well?

[@hyde_official]

No, it does not cause issues in circulation. the coolant would circulate normally. I've not had any issue of coolant level either.

[@hyde_official]

I have an updated video coming later this week on where to block it from the source now that I have the motor out. So make sure notifications are turned on so you get notificatified once I release the video.

Awesome channel, I subscribed and liked. I was wondering how hot should an oil cooler on an N20 should be? Too hot too touch and hold it? How many degrees is normal for the oil cooler after it's been driven for several miles or so?

[@hyde_official]

operating temperature of N20 is around 210°F for a stable cruising. of course, when you put it on high load, it will go up to 220-230 if you're on track, etc. Since I have been running this setup, I am between 198-204 even on track. I use 5W-30

[@nd_fliming9806]

Hi mate, may I ask hv u faced any oil starvation while tracking the n20?

[@BamaTony73]

@@nd_fliming9806if you were asking me, no I haven't. I check the oil in my car more so than any car I've ever owned simply because of the no dipstick thing. I just changed the oil in mine last week and changed out the DRIVEN break in oil, and put in the Castrol Edge 5w30 full synthetic. My advice owning a car like this from experience of rebuilding the engine after 10k miles of owning it...would be always check oil, coolant, and always run the best gas.

[@hyde_official]

no, it hasn't happened to me yet.
