will be provided. The before and after #'s won't be exactly comparable as the before numbers will include side mount intercoolers with a NISMO radiator. The after numbers will include a block with lots of water passages opened up for increased water flow, a lower temperature thermostat, Howe radiator and the before mentioned FMIC. Here in Austin, I am in the land of the Supra. There is a contingent of Supras that are in the area that road race regularly. SW runs his BPU ++ car with a FMIC very, very hard on road courses with no negative heating effects. His only issue has been blowing the power steering unit. However, there has been issues with Automatic Supras with a FMIC. The issue here stems from the tranny cooler not keeping the fluids cool enough. I'll also add that the high HP supras do blow their motors with regularity; as you mentioned earlier, that is just not talked about much. You definitely push your car at the track (w/ 150 + mph sustained speeds) MUCH harder that I ever will. I believe that even if I have zero heating issues, that will in no way mean that you would not have heating issues with the exact same setup. B.
