I'd just like to brag about my successful coolant reroute.  After a few
weeks of on and off fabrication, I came up with a nice aluminum pipe setup
that has made an incredible difference in my coolant temperatures.  I used
to see about 108C on tight, slower race tracks; now it's down to 85C.  I
ended up bypassing the old heater core loop and feeding the heater core via
the coolant boss that is normally used for the stock oil "cooler" and
throttle body heater. Now all the hot coolant goes directly to the radiator,
the car still makes good heat, and the operating temperatures are at
thermostat temp during cruise and only a few degrees higher during heavy
boost.  Now it's time to install the new chip in the ECU and re-tune for
cool running engine and my nicely balanced cylinder temps.  

 

Woohoo!!
