The reports I have gotten from the guys at Saleen is that when they would drive a car from the Speedlab facility in Irvine to their local dyno they would normally have temperatures of 130 degrees by the time they got to the dyno. Then they would cool the car down with fans and ice and make pulls. In between every other dyno pull they would have to reapply the fans and ice. Showing the serious affects of heat soak.
With the new 08 Heat Exchanger in place they were able to bring the car to the dyno, make as many pulls as they wanted and temperatures never even came close to 130 degrees! The average difference was approximatley 30 degrees in varying conditions. On the highway is the most apparent. If you make a long hard blast down the highway your temps will normally skyrocket. If its a summers day forget about it! With the larger HE in place temperatures are sustained and result in sustained higher HP levels!
Cooler temperatures also result in less chance for detonation. There is no reason not have an upgraded Heat Exchanger. With vehicles located in the south or warmer climate regions this is a "must have" upgrade!
thanks,
