Beat that bitches. I won. Higher is better, right?

Data added for @reverend_sean and @SierraCarrera !

Full report here: https://www.datadrivenmqb.com/drivetrain/coolingdata

And while this isn't in the published report, I've got some other pages that are interactive to use for toggling different filters and highlighting different samples, but here's a screenshot of everything from coolest to hottest (using ECT max temps seen):

Must be a VIR thing because I’m right there with you. Lol

Yep, you win a crash course in DIY engine replacement. Redeem your prize when you least suspect

This makes me happy.

Also makes me curious if trimming the OEM cooling stack defectors to fit with my V1 FMIC would improve its track performance even more.

But mine was at Dominion AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. I'll be at VIR 2x in Nov and Dec so will get some data....also will likely be cooler outside at that time. I'm not sure that the smaller tracks actually don't increase the issue if you are constantly at high RPM and not moving through the air v. fast to provide cooling through the stack?

 

[DerHase]

I’ll have to write some kind of calculation to run on each sample to indicate relative gradient or transient speed changes under acceleration. That might be a better indicator of stress placed on the cooling system. Or even taking peak to peak differences to all be averaged divided by the cumulative time accelerating over the time sample (with braking transients not counting towards the end value).

Will have to noodle on this some.

Somehow incorporate RPM?

It's ok. I have a Chinese hookup

I will be there in November with Carolinas PCA.

Looks like I need to schedule the winter wonderland event with the rest of you. Lol

Yeah, that's a huge difference in the cooling efficiency of your IC, Jake! Not going to insert an ECS joke here...that's overplayed

 

[DerHase]

Pushed a minor update today: I added vehicle speed to the general "snapshot" of every log where it was available (it scales nicely with all the temp data already displayed). Also rescaled all of the individual samples to display from 25-285 deg F.

It makes it easy to see the coolant temp increase happening partway down long straights and continuing until you let off.

Example with @Mini7

Just went back and looked.

Interesting that the crazy high coolant also corresponded with the highest avg boost

I've still got a hat with your name on it waiting for you to come back!
