Most of the time it depends on what the outside air temp is as well, considering I'm driving in peak hour traffic 95% of the time... for instance, tonight the coolant didn't get above 58°C and two nights ago when it was a little warmer, it went to 65°C. Same driving, same route, same traffic.

It's only when the stupid MAP sensor is acting up that it goes to the REAL low temps (like sub-50°C). Confused

Also FYI Toobs, Dominator did the work on the block (honing).


Andrew - Have you got a thermostat in there at all? When I drove my new engine over to the turbo workshop It only stayed at 30-40deg.

Well atleast your driving your car now. I remember your car being at Belgarage last year


Yeah guys, it's almost been on the road a year since the conversion. And been rebuilt twice since then... Confused Yes mine does have a thermostat in there, the TRD 71°C which cost an arm and a leg. I'm thinking of sticking the old 82°C one back in instead, see if it works instead of giving me this much grief. Sad
