I'm interested, but not now. It is cold enough outside that I won't be interested until spring approaches

Better get over to GRD and get that Dyno done. I still think your C32 is stronger than mine was stock.

1fastc32,
Can you tell us if you have an aftermarket pulley on your car?
Also, what was the temperature the day you came up with the IAT numbers?
Also, any pics of what the car looks like from the front with the new IC radiator?
I am trying to find out if this mod will be worth it for someone that already has the Evosport windshield washer mod by comparing some of the numbers.

temp was 80 degrees outside...
i have some pics, just need to send them to jerry to host them for me...
in reference to the evosport windshield washer reservoir mod, i did not like that option, not because it doesn't work, but because i like having windshield washer fluid in there so that i can use it for it's intended purpose...i don't know how much the evosport mod lowers the IAT, it would be nice to see someone chime in...

I took some numbers the other day and it was 78 degrees outside. IAT while while cruising was 117 degrees. Full-throttle would max out the IAT at 148 degrees. It will return to cruising number in about 5-10 seconds.
So it appears as though your mod has quite a bit lower IAT temps. Let us now if you come up with any other numbers. Maybe on different temp days.
These are with the ODPS and windshield washer mod. I assume my original pump and intercore are in good shape

the only problem with this is that i would have to pay shipping from each place, it would still probably come out cheaper than what i was quoting above, but it would be a pain...i am going to take these prices to the guy i have been dealing with and see if he will cut me a break...
i really am trying to help you guys out, believe what you want, i am just quoting what i paid for everything, if i can find the stuff cheaper, then obviously i will pass along the savings...if no one wants to buy the setup, then that is fine with me as well...I AM NOT TRYING TO MAKE MONEY ON THIS!!!!
