I have a computer that should plug into your car that lets me look at your sensors and will tell me what your temp really is. Its obd2. I use it check engine code and air bag codes. It reads every engine sensor.
What FMIC are you running? Mine always ran hot. I ran around a 75/25 water to coolant mix with water wetter to try and help keep temps low. I switched to a less dense (ETS) FMIC which also helped.
I have a punishment racing fmic. It's not a very thick core.
The weather never played a big part in it. Even in the winter. It has done it forever. it really sucks on the road coarse I have to lift and coast because it gets really warm when beating the shit out of it.
4seasons69, let me know when you could hook it up. My cel is on but I have a feeling it's because I deleted all the egr sensors.
Are you just tuned on the stock 99 ecu? If so and you have a laptop I'd pick up a tactrix cable so you can log and look at stuff. You can usually find them for sale used on evom or if you're cheap like me you can search nationally through craigslist and hopefully find a good deal from an honest guy who will ship.
Either way nice job on getting it going, hopefully makes some good numbers!

I should be up there on Thursday evening to work on my car so we can on Thursday. My number is 651-983-1230 text me Thursday and remind me to bring it home from work with me.
On DB's dyno I am hoping 370-400ish...
To be honest I have no clue what it is going to make. I have not seen any numbers out of this kind of turbo. Ill be happy with anything over 350.
Well turbo is installed and ready to go messed with the boost controller a little to see how it responded. I backed it way out thinking it would creep like crazy and it only made 10lbs. Turned it in a few turns an am making 17.
The boost seems to come on very gradually. I am running a very rich 10.5 afr so all seems well. Excited to strap it on the rollers and start cranking up the boost.
No good today on the dyno. Couldn't make any more then 22lbs of boost on the dyno and was spooling as bas bad as a 6262. Waste gate was opening by itself even with tue wastegate unplugged.
Anyone have a torch? We could have a dsm bonfire!!!
I have two hx wastegates that I am doing to try. Hope it will work.
I have a holset wastegate I am going to use. I am going to drop the car back off at DB and just have them fab up a shaft and bracket. I am so tired of working on it.
