I agree with Blue...if you want the car to last on the track Turbo OR S/C you're going to need cooling mods. Everything gets put through a lot more stress and like he mentioned everything is already pretty much at its limit stock over a 25 min track session in 100* heat. Its not just the fact that the exhaust manifold and intake components are hotter, but just the fact that more power is being generated creates more heat. Have you ever grabbed a moving bicycle tire with your hand to stop it (did you feel the heat) now imagine trying to stop one with somebody pedaling. Same idea more power into the tire is creating more heat energy. Now with an FI car that extra energy goes through the entire drivetrain and stresses all of the components more. I plan to do, and would recommend an upgraded radiator and an thermostat'd oil cooler for a stock car just to keep the systems in place from being overly stressed. For an FI car I'd say a better radiator (i.e. triple pass), an even bigger oil cooler, a transmission fluid cooler, and a diff fluid cooler should all be used if you want those other parts of the car to last.

Does anyone else find little spurts of radiator fluid around some of the hoses? I know I'm not the only one that gets this, just wondering who else see's this.
