Question your reliable hp figures & quick ?s

You should set your PSI setting to Koyo Radiator.

lol...i dont think the koyo radiator boost upgrade is gonna help him at this point. he needs the air pressure regulator diaphragm if he is going to start messing with that.


seriously though, you need to start doing research...start reading all the old threads about the stuff you are asking about. the old schoolers here have all been thru this already and those old threads will have all the info you need.

also... www.scuderiaciriani.com

it aint the hp that makes a car unreliable...its having the wrong mods...no temp guages...using that stock IC....not keeping it up....not taking care of it...driving it even though you know there are things wrong with it etc...

my mod list will get you to 381hp at least
