Haha I don't have a problem with it really. Just been working on too many car projects now to just realize how much time and effort it all turns out to be.

And the dominating thing is there is always some type of problem to be chased down. Gets old. As it relates to the FR-S its just become another pile to me.

Dez,
You're quite the negative Nellie. I suggest relaxing and enjoying the car on the streets then buying a Spec Ford or something similarly built for the track. Then you can enjoy the driving without all the stress of trying to transform a street car into a track machine.

I have 12k Vortech mile. The only maintenance I needed to do was oil changes. I don't track it though, so I don't need an oil cooler and it's a perfect daily driver. The stock cooling system in the car is great. I've driven hard on multiple 100+ degree F days and the Oil temp maintains 228F on cursing. Hard driving gets to about 246F. Synthetics can run up to 300F safely. Not only that, I make the people that toy with me on the road feel stupid

No IC here yet and I live in Phoenix. My car runs perfectly fine for what I use it for all the time. It is on e85 however and that did help this kit tremendously.
