Re: Car Running Too Cold?

Yeah alright, I'm still convinced that it helps with startup/warmup on a stocker but once you go chasing horsies you need to get rid of it, hence why aftermarket performance manifolds don't accommodate a water jacket (bar a select few).

I understand the intercooling concept and the NA thing, but I really doubt that all the manufacturers that you and I mentioned had missed the mark that much. They were onto something, maybe poor fuel quality of the day needed the additional heat to get the best out of it? but don't modern efi motors have the same thing? Hyundai, Woo, Holden etc.

I guess we need someone who knows their fuels to explain how it all actually happens.

For a stoker yes, for a power-up engine no.
