Default Procharged temp questions

I have a D1 with 3 core IC. Im interested to know if anyone's temp drops to N on Normal when driving. Im not sure if its due to IC, Cowl hood or both.

Does this mean you car is all put together and terrorizing the streets? I must have missed the memo.

I've got a D1 with the 3 core and mine runs pretty cool all the time. I can't remember if its ever run on the N, but I remember it usually around the OR area.

mine goes to maybe just below bottom when on the highway which is 130 on my guage. it's nothing bad. ive asked alot of knowledgable guys. combined with the thermostat and this cold air. lol

even in summer i never went above 190.

It must be the 4" cowl hood thats keeping the temp so low. Im not complaining or anything but just curious what everyone elses temp is at.

my car stays at a the OR range since i still have tranny fluid going through the radiator. i dont have a D1 or a 3 core but the paxton intercooler is 3.5"s thick so thats a little bit of extra mass the air has to go through to get to the radiator.

I love how everyone is using the letters in normal to guage their temps.
And it looks good venom!

Yeap thats some inaccurate way to see how cool the engine is lol. I have two temp gauges, just need to tap somewhere to hook it up.

wow that seems way to cold. I hope they didn't toss a 160* stat which would be retarded on a EFI vehicle.

Im not sure what letter it sits on but I have a p1sc with a 3core and it stays right in the middle of the temp guage, maybe a tad lower.

It important to note that Im talking about when you are going down the expressway. Around town Im in the middle. If I hop on the expressway after being in traffic in the city it will go down to N on normal after a few minutes.

That's kinda cold for an efi car, but if it works for you rock it.
