Good stuff. Bummed I couldn't make this one, like to try NCCAR one of these days...it's close. At VIR when I saw you in May, my wagon got pretty hot, 240 coolant, 285 oil, 270 trans...ouch! Turned on the heat but it was set to defrost so AC came on, logs show the big spike in IATs. Anyway, glad your car seems to be doing ok. Have you considered just running straight water/water wetter until it starts to get cold?
I noticed that when the outside temperature was 80°F, the highest oil temperature in your car was 276°F. Interestingly, when the outside temperature rose to 87°F, the highest oil temperature only reached 271°F. I had assumed that higher outside temperatures would lead to higher oil temperatures. Perhaps the stock intercooler is playing a significant role. Do you think the Motul oil made a big difference?
@@BuntaTypeR take a look at the water temperature at the time too. I was also trying different configurations between sport, +R, TCS on and off, a/c on/off and heater on/off. I ordered a test kit from Blackstone and plan to send the oil off to see what they say!
@@pointbypatrolI’ve seen some tests being done between different intakes and saw that the prl actually was the worst performing out of eventuri, gruppe m
thanks for the video
Off topic but what kind of camera did you use to film this? Thanks!

@@karstgeo7290 I'll swap the coolant for water when I get the new radiator! Wanted to experiment on the factory system this go-round!
Will you use the AP racing calipers again?
@@VictorGarcia-hw8gv Absolutely!
What event was this?

What tires? Stock ps4s?
I see it's in the description 😂
This was on a used set of Cup 2's. Heard NCCAR was hard on tires, so I decided to use some tires that were almost dead.

PRL intake is better than eventuri? The IAT temperature are lower?
@@IsraelGuitarZ PRL has a second intake source which helps for builds above 400hp.
