Better cooling for the Maggie
I see on a couple threads, some run real hot, some are cool. I just tried mine out for a couple miles the other day, seemed pretty hot. Not sure what a long trip will do. Is there a better way to keep them cool? Right now it is just mixed antifreeze. Still waiting for winter to go away here.

Check out ALKY Control Methanol kits, best made Meth kit out there, each one is custom made per vehicle. Adds 25% HP & cools IATS by well over 50-60%. Been running mine for over a year, at 700+ RWHP and 11-11.5 lbs of boost |
Another thing that might help is try to find a hood or maybe the Hex vents to get that hot air out of the engine bay. I'm not sure how much this will help the maggie, but it couldn't hurt.

What exactly is hot that you're worried about? The motor or the blower? If you're not in boost, the blower is the coolest thing under the hood. Under boost, it heats up, but cools down quickly when you get your foot out of it. If you think the motor is running too hot for your tastes, add a cooler 'stat and upgrade the radiator. Meth only helps when you're under boost. And with a Maggie, the cooling attributes of meth are minimal at best.

Long tube headers and high flow cats helped cool down my charger significantly.

I've had my Super Chiller for over a year. Absolutely works the best. Probably the best mod for the money for consistent, hassle free, cooling. |
Mine runs cool, I have the hex vents and the 1/2" heat spacer that JRE sells. I can drive mine for an hour and the chager is still cool to touch.

I could list mods for an hour, but here's the gist of it under the hood: TVS 2300 with 3.6 pulley & OD Cog Drive-11-11.5 lbs of boost Kooks LTs with Green Cats, SLP X-Pipe & SLP Loud Mouth II exhaust ALKY Control Meth Custom grind blower Comp Cam with rods, valves & piston kit CAI, Inc intake with plexiglass removed & Z-Force Ram inducted hood Ported Throttle Body Granatelli Coils & wires ZR1 Plugs ZR1 3 Bar Map Sensor ZL1 Fuel pump with ADM FPCM ID 850 Injectors Jannetty Super Tensioner One BAD AZZ Tuner-Ryne Cunningham, Cunningham Motorsports, and my tune is conservative, I think that's most of it off the top of my head, won't get into suspension, drivetrain & rear as that's all been changed as well. Once I move back to NJ at the end of the month, I'll be adding Tracy's (RX Performance) Super Chiller also. |
