Does your topmount heat up heaps??
 

Hi just curious to know if everybodys topmount intercooler gets really hot, because I just put on a turbo hood and still my topmount is pretty hot almost to hot to touch after a spirited drive. It just seems quite ineffective.
please share your thoughts.

All IC's heat soak at low speeds.

TMIC's need more forward speed to cool than FMIC's.

It does the job it was designed to do 200hp to the flywheel it cools that....

Ask more from it it heat soaks bad. At speed it indeed works but not well.

When I do a run with my Greddy fmic the temps actually drop...stock tmic never did that.

Do you still have the rubber seal that seals up between teh hood and the intercooler?

and on a random note im going to try to make grilled cheese on my top mount.. everyone calls me george cuz my car has a george foreman grill under the hood.... its not the best for high hp engines.....

Becarful, you might crack your grill if you run it hard ;)

Hey yo my radiator and oil cooler get really hot too, specially after spirited driving. Maybe they aint workin?

Do u think its worth relocating it to the front untill I get proper front mount?
thanks

Considering you'd have to pay to run all the piping, your best bet would be to just pick up a fmic. If money's an issue, try to find a sabb 9000 fmic.

spend your effort getting a real tranny instead of your pathetic automatic instead...

mines nice and cool when i open the hood after driving
