Some tips for your overheating. drill a hole in your thermostat, put a larger pulley on your water pump, these techniques work by slowing the flow of water which means it spends more in time the rad and actually cools better than faster flowing coolant. If you use another engine for it down the line have the block caustic dipped to remove all rust from the block, especially in the water jackets and the outside of the bores. Also move your oil coolers away from the rad, as they will just be heatsoaking your radiatior. really enjoying your regular content too.

I was talking to some guys from Japan about my Fit, and one of them commented that (being an Alberta car) I don't have a front plate, and how much the front license plate restricts air flow to the radiator. Even to the point that most people who run a road car at the track will remove it. Sounds really simple, but if you're worried, it might be a free and easy solution to a little more cooling.

+aaguirre123 we're pretty sure the understeer is being caused by the giant rear wing as well as a bad rear alignment (it currently has 1/4'' toe-in and about 3.5-degrees of negative camber). We're getting the car aligned properly at NV Auto soon and will be sure to loosen up the rear with zero toe and less camber, plus adding a front splitter before our next track test should help balance out aero grip and make the car a lot more neutral than it was during this test.

+setra23 Working on the ducting. Koyo is a great rad and should provide efficient cooling.

Read somewhere that you are making 262 whp on 91 octane pump gas You know how I can make you all jealous? In Germany, we have 102 octane pump gas... (ARAL stations)

Oh we know, we remember fueling up when we were driving to the Ring!

could have sworn somewere that american/ canadian gas uses a different octane rating system so our 91 octane would be similar to your 93 octane, with 100 octane gas (103 octane in europe) being rare but available

BeastMode1210 yeah might be, I wasn't aware of the fact only such low octane gas is available regularly in CAN/USA. I'm curious what kinds of power this set up would manage on 102 octane with a new tune.

should have done it like drifters and removed the front bumper.

+John Smith We thought about it but the car already had too much understeer. With the bumper off it would've been horrible.

dont need a rad fan on the track , just in the pits , lots of guys run no rad fan. rad fans dont do anything above 40

+Sounds of silence You're correct, a rad fan will actually reduce the flow of the air through the rad at high speeds but we still need to ensure it works for in the pits and the drives home.

You could try a rear rad mount

+Zackary Lentz The engineering of something like that is way too much work for what we need to accomplish. Some ducting and hood vents are really all that it will take to get temps down.
