I have a related question. I was driving around today and my PFC reported temp varied from 100-104. When I was up on the highway going steadily over 60 the temps stayed at about 100-101. Does this mean:
1) PFC temps are not accurate and I need to get a real temp gauge to calibrate the powerfc
2) My thermostat does not open until I am over 100 C
3) My fans don't come on early enough (I doubt because of highway temps)
4) None of the above

If it is 1) what is a good, cheap, easy way to find out what the actual temperature is?

sounds like your radiator is getting suffecient air to cool it down, thus lower radiator temps.

Either way, the datalogit software/hardware is the SH*T. My water temps get to about 95 with a FMIC and HEAVY WOT runs.

Since the install of my PFC my fans stay on all the time? I cant figure it out, and my temp stays at 83c. Jason, any idea why this is?
