irrelevant to his heat problem...

but I still dont know what pulley is on that tvs to create so much heat.

Just a guess, but maybe its not spraying? there should be a noticeable difference in temp and afr when switching nozzle size.

Are you people retarded? Seriously I hate to lash out in a thread in which I'm asking for help in but 3/4s of these responses are a complete waste of everyones time.

Yes I retuned to make it less richer, which again has nothing to do with IAT.

I'm running the 75MM pulley, and no it was not any more cooler with the 80MM on.

Hrmm lets see if its not spraying anything why would I become richer when its armed? Magic Pixie Dust? I stated about 4 times already in this thread the methanol pump and intercooler pumps are working.

Yea the methanol does help IAt to some small degree maybe 10-15 degree drops however your not spraying methanol at idle. When your sitting at idle like in staging lanes the temp just keeps on shooting up.

is your pump se to run all the time or just come on when it gets hot? how about your fans? are they 100 percent or just when it reaches a certain degree?

aaaaannd, yer done.
The fluid pump runs whenever car is running. stock delay is like 5 seconds. Its on when the car is running unless the ambient temp is subzero.

The cooling fans should not be on 100% of the time. maybe only during track days. good way to wear them out.


and I do spray methanol occasionally when the car is sitting still in traffic or staging lanes. A quick throttle stab and moderate rev will activate the boost switch and trigger the pump. i watch my iat2 fall about 5* immediately. have the boost switch set to activate between 8 and 10 psi.

This is a long shot guess, but is your boost bypass valve stuck closed? I've seen that cause high idle iat2...

My TVS is perfect runs laps perfect does not slow down or get hot. I have already suggested you have a fundemental problem and it has to do with your install and tune, but at some point you gotta get off the forum and get back to your car....

nope. look at any stock tune file. turns on automatically after 10 seconds of engine run time regardless as long as the iat is above 5 degrees farenheit, you will seriously not give a **** about a h/e pump when its that cold...

i think the bypass valve may have some issues, i fail to see how a tune has anything at all to do with IAT

It doesn't.

And the adding more water in the mix... it has its tradeoffs. I find the best balance is about 75/25. wouldnt dilute it more than 60/40. less than that is wek saus.
