It was 103 here and the Z's coolant temp was gettin very high. I was losing ~4lbs of boost due to the heat and couldnt even turn on the AC w/o risking overheating the car. So instead of driving, I worked on some mods in an AC'd cooled garage yesterday.

How did you get access to an AC'd cooled garage? I could get tons of stuff done if I had one of those.

Also, the car wasn't running in limp-mode after the CEL, because I was able to rev it above 4k RPM and all the way up to 7500. I'll probably take my car to the mothership again. ![Why Me](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/whyme.gif)

Thank You Gary for Co-sponsoring the lunch
![Thumbs Up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
You're right - I didn't think about the RPM limit in limp mode. So I take it that the X didn't give you any additional problems on the drive home. I'm curious to what they find.
It must be hard to drive only having 280whp in NA mode instead of your normal 345whp
