So I went to a track day today (and tomorrow). While it wasn't a HOT day, it was pretty nice. 74 degrees. Which is actually warmer than it was when I came to this same exact track back in October. At that time, I was experiencing limp mode after just 2 laps if running the JB4. Turning off the JB4 would elminate the problem.
Now, today, I ran all day with the JB4 on and had NO limp mode. So I think that bodes well for this setup. The oil gauge showed about 1 to 1.5 ticks over the 250 mark at its high point. And just driving through the paddock after running would drop temp down to 230-240. With stock cooler, it would hang at 250 through the paddock and until I let it sit idling for a few mins.
