Re: Factory intake - addition of heatshield wrap & proposed intake modifications
Shawn,
In regards to the extractors, I'd rather have them ceramic coated for a much better and more durable result.

Re: Factory intake - addition of heatshield wrap & proposed intake modifications
You would expect the factory intake to get hotter when stopped as all the heat from the radiator area will be spreading out & there is no cool air being forced in as there is while the car is moving.

A combination of both I would say Rich.

Re: Factory intake - addition of heatshield wrap & proposed intake modifications
Yesterday I wrote down some more temperatures. It was much hotter yesterday than other days I've taken temperatures.
Sitting in traffic (Canterbury Rd, peakhour stop-start) with A/C turned on:
Dash - 33 (constant)
Sensor 0 - 33.7, 35, 34
Sensor 1 - 49.6, 52, 53.5
Sensor 2 - 52.3, 54.1, 55.3
(different temperatures above taken approx 30-60 seconds apart)
Then immediately after rolling @ 20kph for approx 100m:
Sensor 0 - 29.7
Sensor 1 - 49.0
Sensor 2 - 54.1
You can see sensor 0 (@ foglight) doesn't get affected by engine-bay temps (or not as much as other locations), and quickly drops about 5 degrees once I start moving, whereas the other locations need more speed & time to be affected.
It's worth noting that as soon as I stopped rolling that 100m or so, sensor 0 jumped up to 40+ for about 20 seconds - I assume probably due to the heat from the engine bay and/or under the car, moving forward/turbulence into the location of the sensor.
