Need some data - Your Water Temps and Oil Temps
I just wanted to see what everyones oil and water temps are. Im wondering if I need a thermostat that opens earlier and a better oil cooler or something of that sort. Ever since I got my new turbo put in, it seems the temps have increased a lot.
Currently on a daily driving basis, my temps are: Water - 190 Oil - 210 In traffic, oil temp obviously increases. Water seems to stay there for the most part, but it can go up. Is there anything I can do to bring temps down? Water Wetter work? Change Thermostat? |

82*C water temp on my old FC all day. highest it got at thunderhill or buttonwillow was 95*C. stock thermostat lots of ducting
oil temps I have no idea and dont want to know. stock oil cooler lots of ducting |
82C (180F) is the standard thermostat setting. If your temp is 190, then a colder thermostat probably wouldn't help.
Water wetter might take off 5 degrees F. Maybe. I wouldn't worry too much, bet here's what you can do:

Well, I have a Koyo Radiator that is thick...and stock belt fan with a custom plate over the intercooler area that seals everything off.
Hmm...I was told I need to get my oil temps down as a start to even get the water lower. |
