Hmmm, your braver than I!
Not that I've never done it, but I see you couldn't wait for the little girl to warm up before you hit the warp drive button.
1.) Pic shows temp needle just off the bottom 2.) pic shows oil pressure pegged @3,700 rpm,(cold oil?) 3.) pic shows that you too have installed and like to use the 1 bar wastegate spring, shooooooof. Not giving you a hard time, just proud of myself for noticing the little things. It's hard to deny her the cold air of winter isn't it, enjoy my fellow boosted friend. |

Below zero this morning here in IL/Chicago. No spring here just yet. Maybe next week.

another observation-are you taking a strange line through a banked-oval or is the alignment off?

About pegged oil-pressure and oil-temp almost off the bottom:
For quite a long time I've been reading about SC guys having problems with high oil temps and bad engine pressure...and i can't help wondering what they are talking about?? I cannot get oil-temp gauge much further that that on the pic...and pic was taken after 30-min drive @ ~75 mph so oil wasn't cold...outside temp was near-freezing tough so it probably cooled oil. When i drive in town, second thermostat opens and i can hear oil sloshing in the front oil-cooler, but oil-temp gauge rarely moves much more than one mm over first bar... Here's my thread about oil-temp gauge in 930: http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4727 (Accidentaly one of my first posts on the BBS), and conclusion was that 930's always run cool unless driven hard. Or is my primary oil-thermostat busted? I always get full oil-pressure over 3000 RPM...if oil is really warm i get 3 bar @ idle and that's lowest i can get. Wheel is pointing slightly to the left since they changed one front strut ... i need to realign them i think. P.S. island911: there's always a white flash when you enter the hyperspace! Ever watched Starwars? ;-)
