Learning how to drive it correctly on track first!

That placement would be perfect for a boost gauge..

What was learned?

1 - Stock gauge shows straight up and down... VDO shows ~140

2 - If you get in "dirty" air on the highway or tailgate the temp rises a bit. Jump out into clean air and you get lower temps :)

Put in a new radiator while I was at it.
