Sorry, didnt see this till now.

180 on the highway and normal street driving / 200 in traffic @ 75 degree weather.

If it drops into the 50's I have trouble getting temp to 180.
If it goes above 85 it behaves very similar to when temp is 75.

One thing I've noticed lately is that timing in NOT being pulled regardless of engine oil temp. That leads me to believe that intake temps are way more important for VVEL parameters than oil temp.

Guys please understand the wheel color was adjusted for print. It is a candy color and as most of you know capturing te essence of a candy color in a camera is difficult much less capture it in print because you are limited to certain color spectrums. Now everyone who has seen these in person loves them! We will be doing a new custom one off wheel once the wide body is finished and the car is back in Atlanta.

A little teaser about some upcoming updates in the next month:

New additions to the bodywork (more race oriented stuff)
New audio system! Courtesy of Vibe audio

New seats and interior

Coming months after it comes home:

New idea and concept to the concave wheel game! One off wheels with black/bronze theme! 11" up front and 13/14" in rear! Deep concave and massive visible lips! No more wheel faces to the edge of your rim and calling it deep dish!

Let me fix that for you... concave with a lip and LIGHT, and on the burnout video they will have to be cheerios unless you put a switch in the brake pedal sensor wire.

Why not some dymags with a custom colored face?
