    running a little hot

    I use that and my temps with my Koyo race radiator are about 195 and 205 when at the strip. With 100+ temp all the time here and driving in traffic for 30 miles each way it gets really warm. When I had the 180 in there it would cruise about 215 and 230 at the track and that is why I went...

    running a little hot

    It's the Flex a lite fans. That is the very reason that I have not put them on my car as of yet. In TX it's so hot and the stock fan works much much better. Have you checked your thermostat as well? I run a 160* thermostat honestly to keep my temps down. I drive my car 30 miles one way to...

    Cleanest MK3 I've ever seen in Colorado

    The front nose piece is going to look different over time than the rest of the car because it is made from a different material. Yes it is a very low mileage car however the paint is over 20 years old.

    what EMS to run

    You already have a map ecu, so that will get you to 500rwhp. Now above that you need to be able to control timing. So right now you are fine. When you upgrade past 500rwhp is when everything starts to get expensive. Like a twin disc clutch, rebuilt trans, twin fuel pumps or another big pump...

    Cleaning engine bay, what to use?

    Ok, everyone knows that my motor blew up, so entire under carriage and engine bay are covered in oil. I took a pressure washer to the bay last night and it took off all the big chunks of oil and dirt, now just need to get the rest of it off. I have an entire case of brake cleaner and can use...

    Timing belt question Gates OEM or Race?

    Wow lots of replies. Guys my goal is 475rwhp maybe the elusive 500rwhp mark. I have everything for it, but for now the car is my daily driver and I work 30 miles from home, so the belt is going to see a lot of action. I drive my car like I built it to be driven. I think that both honestly...

    Timing belt question Gates OEM or Race?

    Everytime I post a thread you always have something smartassish that makes me laugh! Thanks for the info. When I called Gates, they told me that there was hardly any difference and it wasn't worth the difference. But their belts look good! I would like to get some of their acc belts as...

    Timing belt question Gates OEM or Race?

    When I called gates, they said the only thing different was the color, just called again structurally they are the same. There is a coating on the outside of the Race one that is blue which is more for color, but durability is the same. If there was one local I would get it but the only one I...

    Timing belt question Gates OEM or Race?

    Hey guys, just wanted to get your opinion about the belts. I have run the last 40K miles on my car with the regular Gates belt. I was thinking about getting the racing belt instead this go round because it's blue and supposed to be better. When I called Gates the Sales guy couldn't tell me...

    Injector Options 550cc 680cc 700cc

    Get some 550's or some 580's(PTE) if you are still on the lex afm until you get rid of it to with a standalone that can control the bigger injectors. The 550's will get you about 450rwhp. I'm hoping to get the 580's just for a little extra measure, if not, I'll just have to deal with the...
