As much as I would like to see the intercooler, I think it is sweet that it is hidden, no one knows its there!!!

Pass - Are you rolling around with the front bumper on right now? How is the cooling.

What about putting something like this on for those hot summer days?

I hate cars

Methanol will give you roughly 10X the cooling of CO2.

Umm so with those gauges you dont have a full view of the speedo?? Pretty lame imo

pohljm

^^^^ dont matter how much of a view of the speedo your going to get, your going to be goin over the limit anyway!

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

^^^ that is such a TURN OFF !!!!

Sorry but we talking about a TL not a CIVIC.....

pass427

To be honest that's about the only place I c suitable for easy viewing, anywhere else and you will have to take your eyes off the road for a peek..

These are from another member, but the best looking gauges so far:

What member is that from? I'm curious what kind of oil temps the TL sees.

bzyrice

iTrader: (10)

wow those apexi gauges match really well!

cruising around town, mine hovers around 200f. WOT for long periods of time, it hits around 230-240f


when i road raced it last april, oil temps hit around 260f which is the hottest ive seen it yet.

that is from Mike's (aznbo187) TL if I am not mistaken

Tripnbeats

id mold it to the top of the dash and replace the center speaker with those gauges or mold it to the A pillar OR reconstructive surgery....lol I put my VAFC2 where those gauges are and it looks great but i stuck it to the cluster cover from behind.... it would have to be covered up tho....i think id go a lil nuts if it wasnt.

Not that I really care but I do have full view of the speedo. The video is with the steering wheel almost all the way up.

I hate cars

And this is after the supercharger, right? It looks like these cars are relatively gentle on oil. 260 in the summer roadracing with a supercharger isn't bad at all but it's getting into synthetic territory.

Do you have any pre-blower oil temps?

Thanks!

Tripnbeats

id say gentle on oil when your gentle on the throttle.

xrvman

I think I would drill into that space at the top of the speedo and flush mount them on either side

I hate cars

260 on a hot day of autocrossing on a car with an aftermarket blower and no oil cooler is very good. I've seen my friend's stock Z06 hit 280+ under the same conditions and they come with a cooler.

260 is pushing the limits of a dino though. That 20wt is getting close to a 10wt. A good 30wt synthetic would be a good idea and it will still be as thin or thinner as the factory 20wt at the elevated temps.

elkayem

So what siez turbo you running?

kowloonsniperhk

i definitely have to see it

I hate cars

I think he said it was a PTE 61. Judging from the pictures it looks like the Garrett GT "boosted" series.

Although getting knocked for my gauges the Nexus series will record all the data on a SD card and then you can download it to your computer. I have A/F slash Boost readings for a full quarter and full dyno. Might be helpful once the ECU is cracked...

Now thats a turn on !!!.....

The old saying "cover the face, Fu#k the base" got a whole new meaning

RonJonTL757

This setup and those gauges are perfect. Anyone know where to get those gauges?

Lazer187

iTrader: (1)

iTrader: (5)

TRIOD3SIGNS

This thread has brought a new found RESPECT to my thoughts on the TL.
After the cars cool factor gets old, I can add 100+ extra horses of power & smoke the crap out of ALLLLL! LOL YES YES YES!

RonJonTL757

I agree cant wait to smoke a 335i

06tlricky
