There should definitely be a noticeable difference when driving on the highway in rainy conditions. If the water splashed up by the vehicle in front hits the radiator and wets it, then the cooling effect should be significantly enhanced due to the additional evaporative cooling. It's a similar principle to water injection, but with separate "circuits"...


Hi.

In theory, this is probably correct, but...

- How significant should the difference be, in terms of horsepower?
- When driving on a wet or slippery surface, significantly more power is required, which diminishes or even completely negates the theoretical performance gain.

Hi,
'So, I wasn't actually present during the test; I just bought it from him because I couldn't prove otherwise.'

Yesterday evening, I was on the train (with three other people) traveling at approximately 170 km/h, and the oil temperature stabilized around 108°C. The distance traveled was about 70 km.
I mean to say that the oil temperature is relatively low for a speed of 170 km/h.
It's important to remember that there is also a chip inside (1Z engine).

I know that the oil temperature was significantly higher before I made all those modifications (increased airflow to the intercooler by 100%, added air outlets behind the intercooler, replaced the series pressure pipes with stainless steel pipes). I rarely reach values above around 125 degrees.

Therefore, I am convinced that a lower LLK temperature is better.

@tim27, could you please post some pictures of your 'work' or email them to me?
I'm interested in this because I also plan to make some changes to the LLK (likely referring to a specific program or system).

What's the point if the air can come out again? icon_question.gif

Sure, here's the translation:

'I am writing to you today to express my sincere gratitude for your generous donation of $10,000 to our organization. Your contribution will help us to provide essential services to vulnerable populations in need.'

'We are deeply grateful for your support and commitment to our mission. Your generosity will make a real difference in the lives of those we serve.'

'Thank you again for your kindness and compassion. We look forward to continuing our partnership with you in the years to come.'
