Just wanted to check with members here, what coolant temperature are people seeing when idling in traffic with AC ON on a 25-30 degree day?

I know that rb25det neos run a hotter thermostat, so wanted to see what temps people are seeing when idling for a while with AC on?

Also what is the vacuum gauge showing in terms of inhg, is around -16 inhg ok when idling with AC on?

Any replies to clear these up are appreciated.

Cheers

There's not much point in asking about the vacumm because it will vary depending on what everyones ECU is doing at that point. Fuel and timing will change the idle vacumm. Mods may also play a part

If your asking this to see if you have a leak then you'd be better off trying to pressurize the system with the engine off

      Make sure to have the block checked for cracking etc before doing anything.

      Pull it out. Put a suction hose on it drawing from a bucket of petrol. Put a discharge hose on it pointing back into the bucket. Add 12V. That will tell you if it works at all. Then put it back in, turn the engine on, and see if there is 12V on the terminals. That would suggest that it runs when the car does and adds its "capacity" to the total pumping system.

      So you're telling me this is an external fuel pump? I've had the car for at least 6 years now and it's been there the entire time. I had the car tuned a couple years ago and I had the shop do the fuel system, including a new in-tank Proflow 340 which shit itself about a year later and I replaced it with the same model. I find it odd that they didn't remove this or even make mention of it. I seriously had no idea what it was. How would I test if it's functioning?

      Don't take it as a guarantee. It's all a game of statistics. And on top of that, smooth over a thick layer of "quality of spanner spinning" as a further Gaussian curve of probability of failure. You play games at anything above ~400 HP, and you're using up margins in terms of engineering and luck.

      Aye, everything is being touched and all the parts that are responsible for the oiling issues are also fixed. (Crank collar, billet prp oil pump, head return to sump, yada yada yada)  Everything used is of reputable brands like greddy, prp etc. My tuner did mention we’d keep the torque on the “lower” side.   glad to read that my engine won’t blow up on me lmao
