Roush TVS 2300 Phase 1 Install.

[golkhl]

The fourth gear full throttle to redline data log was a bit sketchy. Found a long stretch of straight open road out in the desert, but you never know where NHP will pop up. Next time I will do it in third, and save the fourth gear pull for the dyno. Finally got all the parts to install my Aeroforce wideband and boost sensors, know just have to find the time. And then off to Shelby for the dyno.

So how fast did you go?

 

[golkhl]

Too fast for having eyes on the laptop and the road, next time I will bring a co-pilot!

Andy ...

A very smart move/decision on keeping both eyes on the road for sure.

Seriously looking around at gauges while flying at High Speeds down the road is a Disaster waiting to happen IMHO.

Me personally I'm not looking at a damn thing at WOT

My latest adventures involve a wideband bung, and the problems that came with it, which you can follow in my thread in the tech section. As for this thread, I swapped out the stock Roush heat exchanger and replaced it with a Fluidyne heat exchanger. In the little bit of driving I have done, IAT's are down, and when the come up they drop quicker at speed. The real test will be the Las Vegas summer heat. Next up is to finish the wideband and boost sensor install's, and get the final tune revision from VMP. Also planning on taking it to Shelby American for some dyno time.

Aeroforce wideband and boost sensor install is finally done.

 

[golkhl]

Got the firewire hooked up, now I can datalog my A/F and boost. Need to get VMP some new data logs to see if my tune needs any more revisions.

So how's it running? Did you get it on the dyno yet? How much boost are you running right now?

 

[golkhl]

It's running pretty good, no dyno yet, looks like it's hitting 7lbs of boost.

Just installed the 2013 GT500 SVT cooling fan, hopefully my cooling system is all set for the scorching vegas summer. Fluidyne heat exchanger; Fluidyne radiator; Moroso expansion tanks; and SVT GT500 cooling fan.

Looks great!

 

[golkhl]

Thanks Brian. I am still trying to figure out what temp settings I should be at for the low and high speed fans. I set the low speed at 204, and the high speed at 214. What temp settings are you running?

 

[skwerl]

I'd drop down 5-10 degrees from that. I have no idea when mine comes on because I have the dual fan Afco heat exchanger and those fans run all the time, so I can't hear the regular coolant fan. By looking at my temp gauge I'm guessing the low speed fan is coming on at 197 and the high speed at 203-204.

 

[golkhl]

Sounds good Brian, thanks again for the help.

 

[golkhl]

Just adjusted it to 194 low speed and 204 high speed, thanks again Brian.

 

[golkhl]

Drove to work tonight and fan did not turn on until I hit 204 degrees(parked and let it idle until temp came up and fan came on)? I have the low speed set to turn on at 194, so I am not sure why it did not run until it hit 204. Any ideas?
