That I do not know but if you look at Redlines post you will see some pretty clear data on the huge benefit of an extra 2 gallons of coolant makes with a car that is putting down over 700 RWHP.

As to reading your IAT2s, you can also read them with an aeroforce interceptor digital gauge. Just FYI.

Has the OP run the car since? I'm curious to see if the tune was off and if the car perhaps ran quicker since the first outing.

rain friday & sunday no runs yet, I hoping for sunday this week

[big dave]

Great! Best of luck to you.

any day going to the track is a fun day. I really want to run a good number before I have to put the car away.

Not to take away from your awesome times, it's just I get tired of 118 MPH with 600 rear wheel horspower posted from everyone...started with ricers a few years ago

I don't get it? What do you mean here?

I assume you're saying the MPH should be higher and there are other mods besides power to get there. Which I agree but is it wrong to power the car up and have fun with it?

Where do you race? Im in shreveport and will be looking for a place to drag when my ZL1 comes in next month

Yeah, that's true.

There are two IATs in the car one in the intake tube IAT #1` and the other is in the blower IAT #2. You cant read this IAT with standard scan u software, you would need HP tuners or EFI live to read this.

The one in the blower is the important one. The blower creates a tremendous amount of heat. Once the blower temps exceed 140F the ECM starts to pull timing. This can be adjusted, but to a point if you want to keep your motor in one piece. The blower can see temps well in excess of 200F and much more. If you really think tricking the IAT into seeing lower temps is good and then stuffing 200F degree air into your cylinders at full spark is good. Then you need more of an education.

What is needed if more coolant capacity for the intercooler. Look at some of Redline Motorposrts results with IATs using there custom coolant tank designed for the ZL1. IATs stay nice and cool even under full throttle pulls.

These are not NA motors where relocating the IAT for a 20 degree drop in temp was beneficial and safe for more power.

Check out the screen shot I posted above...once engine coolant temp exceeds 140, then the IAT will pull timing as cold as 104...not even 140.

Excuse the TYPO transposed the numbers......
