I would guess that if we had timing data, we can see how the engine is coping with the increased temps. His comment about the power staying relatively the same seems to indicate that the engine isn't pulling any timing. On the other hand, he was using higher octane gas. |

The way I understand heatsoak is that it refers to the ability to dissipate heat once the system is off (between sessions). The end result being that once the temperatures became elevated in the first session, they remained at a higher temperature throughout the rest of the day. If I ran an air-air intercooler, I would expect it to warm up during use, but during cool down dissipate most of the heat built up from the previous session. With the water-air it seems like the temps are much more stable as more of the heat stays in the system while not running. |

I know fuel conservation is usually a priority on track days, so you wouldn't want to leave your car running between sessions. But would it be possible to wire up a system that lets your water pump and fans run with the car off?

Mike had mentioned running the AC on my cooldown and in the paddock to force both fans to kick on, which would help draw some air across the LTR and Koyo. He had also mentioned upgrading fans, but I'm not at the stage where I am ready to start hacking up the OE shroud setup.

With the water system is simply has more mass to hold heat so unless you are circulating the water through the cooling system the heal will only dissipate as fast as the thermal conductivity of the system allows. |

That's what I've been doing but it only engages the fans at low speed. I want to force them on high speed. Because race car.

IIRC that doesn't help much as the fans wont help when the car is at speed, they become a restriction to airflow through the radiator.
