^ anyone have an answer??

 

Ideally combustion engines run the best at 195-200f. I don't know what's the sweet spot on a rotary.

That said 170 is too cool. Your thermostat isn't even open. Don't go crazy on the fans. I try to keep my temps between 180-195.

But during summer I can have the fans blasting and it will stay at 200f.

 

Ok thank you for clearing that up for me.

 

I set it at 83C so the car stays at around 181F , but I think I want to raise it .

 

190

 

few times in the ca hot summer I saw as high as 115C thats hot... didn't boost.. and the car ran fine..but thats HOT!!

 

Hottest I saw was 100C but I was stupid and ran no under tray or ducting for my vmount...stupid

 

You dont need to putt around under 2500 rps until its warm... Just like has been said, just dont boost until warm. I have a power FC and can see the actual temp, but once the stock gauge moves near operating temp, I figure its warm enough.

 

I start it up, buckle my seat belt turn the radio to my fav station and im off.... less than one minute, just enough for oil to start flowing through

Withing the first mile of easy driving leaving my neighbohood and the car is up to temp...

you guys are way too paranoid for those that wait for any significant amount of time to reach temp to start moving the car

 

Yeah I would. Try to keep it at 190. I think that's perfect.

 

Eli063, Should be above 80 at all times. Have fans trigger at 87 and shut off at 82.

In negative temperature, I start the car, let it idle for seconds while you get settled in the car and drive it. Don't boost until over 80 degrees. It's not rocket science, it warms up faster if you drive it...

Sitting there idling waiting for it to warm up is worse for the motor long-term, you like building carbon up inside your motor with the rich rotary cold running?

thank you
