Hi Mates,
I got a JDM S15 Spec R with Pivot Speed meter SML-V installed to remove the speed cut...we went on a hard run yesterday on the highway and we managed to reach speeds upto 250 to 260km/h...when i was maintaining speeds above 200km/ to 250km/h, i noticed the water temp was more than half and it went up to a max of 3/4 of the stock water temp gauge:annoyed:...my cooling system is totally stock and there are no leaks so far...is this normal with the stock cooling system?
another school of thought told me that since i installed the Pivot Speed Meter, it actually fools the ECU to think that it is still running at 180km/h thus making AFR mixtures lean when exceeding speeds above 180km/h...as a result, this makes the EGT and water temp run pretty high ...is this assumption true mates?
i dont want to blow up my engine and any advice and guidance on this matter is highly appreciated...
