Hey guys,

Sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner, spent the day at the track.

The heat issue was solved by ducting away heat better and upgrading the stock rad.

From stock there is quite a bit of plastic around the windshield wiper area, we removed this and saw a big improvement in heat dissipation.

Of course upgrading the radiator was a massive piece of the puzzle. In the /Drive video there were a few reasons working against us other than limited testing time. Mainly it was about 20 deg (c) hotter in at the track than in Canada at the time. While it was a shame we had a heat issue that day, he could do 5 hot laps before 1 cool down and back at it for another 5 laps. Which realistically makes it more that capable for any street driving.

That being said, today at track, it was 15 deg (c) and I did numerous sessions, each over 15 minutes and not once did the needle move above 1/4 on the gauge.

Just like the Team VCMC FR-S, the Fullblown kit keeps improving and good golly its quick :P

If you guys have any other questions about our car, the turbo, whatever, I'd be happy to respond!

Richard

15F? Really? 17 degrees below freezing in Vancouver on April 30th while it was 60F in Seattle.

Whoa.. this climate change thingy is out of hand!

Have you had an issue with higher boost and the valve springs? Just wondering as in other cars shooting for higher boost it can become an issue.

Is there a thread for the stage 1 kit? I searched for it (search thread titles for FBM) and the lousy search engine didn't even find this thread.
