H/E is more effective IMO.

I would go dual pass before H/E. That's actually my next mod. I'll do H/E after the dual pass.

i think the warmest ive seen my IAT2 for the last few months is 80, most of the time its 30-60 depending on temp.
generally cruising you should be only about 20-30 degress warmer than ambient.

I will check tomorrow. I had just got my car back from the dealer and they disconnected my battery and the PCM was doing a relearn. There was a point where I noticed my fuel econ was at 30L/100km then it settled down after about a half hour so maybe I was getting a fucked up reading on my IAT2 as well.

well I have been having to fill it once in a while. I am talking about less than a quarter cup and it was topped up at the dealer when I picked it up this afternoon.

They're talking about intake temps. It's not something you get a reading for on your display.
Lower intake temps, denser air, bigger bang, more power.

Holy crap thats high for crusing especally in the winter, my IAT2 temps last night coming home were a low of 44, average of between 50-60 while cruising, even after a 1-4 WOT run this winter has never exceeded 125 degrees.

I havent even installed my cooling mods yet, just stage 2 and catback for the winter

Looks like my IC pump may not be working. I just finished taking her for a good run and when I pulled over after the car got up to operating temp I popped open the IC cap to take a look at the fluid and there was no pump turbulance. Now I just had the roll pin for my shifter replace a couple of days ago and maby when they put the fuse box back in the nocked the fuse or something or the pump is shot.
