Thats a good point but I won't tell anyone if you go for a bit of faux leather instead Come on -G- don't toy with me, have you just got your wallet out and bought some nice new Gen 2's? Don't do it for me , do it for the pride in knowing you'll have better seats in your motor than your boss does

thats about 1580d Farenheit

How long did it take you to get to that EGT?

Mine will run 1450 F on the track in the long straights in 4th/5th
I think the highest I saw it was 1530-1550

Lohen are going to send off the plugs to Denso to get some opinions and I'm going to send off a sample of oil for analysis to see whats going on inside the engine.

The next step is for Paul to fit the RMW head, 440cc injectors, oil sump baffle, powerflex bushes, coilovers, adj control arms and give it an oil service...then once its all fitted RMW/1320 will live map it ready for road and track. Also being added by me are cooling vents on the drivers side of the bonnet to allow manifold heat to escape and an Ociari air vent scoop to the passenger side to ram more air into the CAI........ but before it goes on track for some hot laps I will ensure it's been data logged for the first few laps to check everything is ok.

If inlet temps are still too high and its still detonating or something isn't right I'll pour petrol over it and light a match.

keep the faith i am sure all will be well when its been done i like the sound of the cooling vents looking forward to seeing them

I try to keep below the 850 and that was during some flat out track sessions at Castle Combe.

People would not believe how much AF can change the temps.
