I have a 2005 GT that I take to HPDE's; engine is stock save for a k&n intake the previous owner put on. Brakes and suspension upgraded.
Over our long cold winter I acquired an iphone, Harry's Lap Timer a high frequency GPS (xpgs 160) and a bluetooth OBD2 dongle (gopoint bt1) to gather some telemetry data during my laps.
A program that came free with the bt1 dongle is Dash Command that can read and display data made available via the obd2 port.
One that caught my attention was the coolant temp. On a 60f day, 10 to 15 minute sessions on a smaller track I would pull off and see a coolant temp of about 216 f consistently, with a high of 219 after slightly longer run.
I guess my first question is, is this too high? What are other's experiencing?
Second, what cooling mods have you done, and what was the result?
Thanks.
