supercharger hood liner clearence

I used to run heavy boost and big turbos. I had upgraded cooling and mishimoto radiators in the past. But the one item that would help even with a stock radiator this..

Also used electric fans that ran for 5 minutes after motor shut off. Hope it helps.

I don't know how you have the liner in there with a S/Cer. My S/Cer nose was rubbing and I had it removed day 1.

Nothing as good as water, but this is a good set of tests.

Mishi is quality. I had a Mishi radiator in my old WRX and I don't know what kind of fairy dust they use in their design, but it was phenomenal. Whether track day or road trip on even the hottest extreme summer days, even A/C cranked, nil a temp flux. And they just look good. The OEM had trouble handling these instances so that upgrade was worth the bills.

My SC just wore a groove in the hood insulation and I drove it like that for like 2 years...then a squirrel came along and ripped it to shreds to make a nest in my blower fan (not the SC...the heater/AC blower).

I started up my VX and thought the blower fan bearing was shot when I heard "squealing" from under the dash...pulled it apart to find 4 dead baby squirrels inside. Removed the remenants of insulation and never did replace it. Thought the insert & hood paint would take a beating but have noticed no ill effects worth mentioning.

Now for the last year + I have a garage to keep flippin beasties out of my VX!

My sports car was reading high on temp. I had a radiator guy look at it. He used some type of tool to read the temp itwasnt high. I had an electronic part failure that caused it to read high. It also had my fuel gauge reading high. Run it up and have it tested with the gun when it is showing too hot to be sure.
