Talking Re: IC tank separation question
When I developed the super cooler I noticed that the expansion of the water did not require a spit tank as the temperature change did not warrent it. I autocross and last summer it was just fine, this year it is not as hot as usual.

The super cooler lets plenty of air thru and does not cause me any issue with the exception of no more severe BAS/ESp codes and engine shut downs due to inlet air temp spikes during a run. Thats a good thing. Just found a photo to let you see the stat I made and super cooler.

BTW the engine will run cooler than the factory stat if the radiator and fan can reject the heat, and that is true with the C up to my max ambient so far of 93 degrees F. My stat I made is 180 degrees, by Stant. Enjoy Woody
