And damn, it is hot this week in CA, isn't it? Supposed to be 115 this weekend at Buttonwillow. In my experience, the engine will start to pull timing at 230F oil temp, so no surprise that it's running sluggish in this weather.
I see. So is it due to the stock mapping? Would a tune be able to eliminate this slug into a more.. Smooth throttling?
Looking at triple digits up here in the North for the week. AC can barely keep up, sometimes i find myself with the AC on and windows cracked just to get more air in.
Also in the market for oil that could possibly run cooler in this weather? Id go with oil cooler route but in the winter, it can get a good 30-40 degrees
