Custom tune. Seems I've read that the factory tune might cut power around 300F? Not sure on that.

Might as well explain why your oil never gets too hot It's also interesting that your tune implements the "oh the engine is too hot" by faking the accelerator pedal position, rather than something else, such as altering the lookup in the drive-by-wire table. If the accelerator pedal is pressed all the way, one could argue any data logging must show 100% accelerator pedal position. Which OBD PID / CAN ID does your data logging system use for the "accelerator pedal position"? |

It seems like I've read that factory setting for calling things off is at 300F, for sure before the tune I never ran into any cutoff. Quote:

Use CAN ID 320 (0x140 hex), first byte, divide by 2.55 to get 0...100 range.

I'm not much of a data jockey... I use the ECUtek software to view data, that's it. Again, it's been confirmed by the tuner that tune applies a multiplier to applied pedal at high oil temps and high rpm, so it's known to be controlled by the tune at that point and not actual pedal position.

I wasn't aware there was a table for this - any idea what it's called?

FWIW I had same max speeds at COMSCC Palmer event 1 this year vs. a car very similar to mine with slightly more peak power and slightly less midrange torque (he has 4-1 EL catless, I have 4-2-1 catless) and he has an oil cooler, so... By "limited power" do you mean the factory tune cuts timing advance at some oil temperature? Dunno if my aftermarket tune does or not but in any case our max speeds were similar to when we were running full factory exhausts and tunes anyway... |

Watkins Glen event on Mon/Tue went GREAT (except for a couple of partially stripped wheel studs )!
I was able to run extended sessions, no problemo Did a 2:14.870 on day 1 and 2:15.335 on day 2 (headwinds, everybody was slower) and TT'd 2:15.688 which was enough to take the win in T50 by 2+ seconds vs. Miata I've been going back and forth with this year https://www.comscc.org/events/result...?id=2021-09-14 Having the oil temp trigger reset to 285F resulted in never running into the tune cutting back on commanded throttle. Oil temp on the factory gauge remained at the same normal level of just over 270F indicated. Sweeet... Last edited by ZDan; 09-16-2021 at 03:45 PM. |

I got some purty rainbow-colored Muteki lug nuts for track for this year for max disco. Before going to the Glen I noticed one of them hanging up a smidge while changing wheels/tires for the trip. Ran down one of my street lugs on that stud by hand, no problemo, so I "cleaned up" the Muteki lug nut with a tap and then it installed fine by hand. *At that moment I should have removed all the Muteki lug nuts*. At the track while removing the left front wheel on day 1, one of the Muteki lugs was dragging, and then halfway through removing it, it totally siezed up. Took a big-daddy impact to remove it. Cleaned off the outer half of the ARP stud but the inner threads were fine and I was able to get a few good turns on it. Took max torque with my street lug nuts no prob. Day 2, exact same thing happened on the right rear. TL/DR: Muteki lug nuts are *shite*. WAY worse than off-the-shelf "tuner" lug nuts from Pep Boys (the "street" lug nuts I've been using street and track for a few years now). |

So in your situation, what do you think would be the better fix out of these two examples? 1) Increase the thermal safety limit so that the ECU can't limit the power output of the engine when the oil reaches the original temperature setpoint, or 2) Install an oil cooler so that the oil temperature doesn't reach the original thermal limit in the first place. |

But that's not what actually happened. The original temperature setpoint was _lowered_ by the custom tune on the ECU. So as I see it, the question should be "which of the following is the most effective for engine longevity":

I'll admit I've glossed over this thread... But why Not buy an oil cooler? regardless of the oil's thermal capacity itself it literally is cheap insurance for a motor seeing track use.
