Keep in mind, this write up was for camry owners. I forgot all about it until today but you should be able retro fit this to our cars using the same basic ideas. It was written by a guy who really knows his stuff. He is not only an mkiv supra owner but has a 450+ (to my knowledge) HP '94...
like i said....no stock, Fluidyne radiator :icon_bigg . Highway is fine, however the undertray is a necesary item for not only cooling but MPG as well. I will have a better idea of how it reacts to longer drives today...i have a 2 hour trip ahead of me.

my question is.....how long do they last? i mean at $25 a piece they damn well better last a looooong time.
edit: nvm, answered my own question....50K miles...which means like 8K on our cars tops.
No more jiggle valve, hacksawed it off. I saw what you were talking about right away, how if it sets just right under pressure it would cause a block.
You hit the nail on the head. I understand the thermal peaks your talking about however, keep in mind these peaks are completely dependent...
Im not saying this product is all its cracked up to be....all im saying is just b/c companies arn't snatching it up, doesn't mean its not a dramatically improved product....especially with the average car company where costs are a concern.

First off thanks for pointing this issue out to those who helped...even if it may have been frustrating for you :biglaugh: . Here's why it was happening:

4 layer stainless according to that. ANYTHING is better than what i have. any throttle over 25% it simply spews hot gas out of the top of the gasket. Its starting to even...
winter time is the only time the temps go crazy :aigo: . I just figured since during normal outside temps (40-90) the temp is almost always 180 (unless it was after a longer boost pull) i thought i'd start there. Apparently im wrong. 190 it is...
And i quote:
"BTW - the stock ECU looks for 176-210 degs as normal ops temps. Below 176, you are in warm-up enrichment...above 210, the ECU pulls timing."
