Fri, 26 December 2003 13:10 just another thought in the continuing saga of my underperforming engine... since installing the extractors, engine bay temps have gone utterly through the roof. i shit you not when i say the bonnet is baking hot, and the intake piping is totally untouchable for minutes after shutdown. the extractors cool quite quickly, which suggests that they also get extreemly hot very quickly (witness engine fire exhibit A) without a cold air intake at the moment, i dare say intake temps would also be enourmous. im guessing that woeful performance might be attribuatble to this to some degree does anyone have any hard data etc regarding increases in air temp, and consequent performance decreases? im thinking this could go someway to explaining my missing +40rwhp... ceramic coating is one option, but i think heat wrap on the manifold and intake pipes is a must at this point. maybe even some sexy pirtek silver spiral insulating tube... CAI, hood vent etc to come... cheers ed [Report message to a moderator]
