lopes seeing as you have the ultimate in Charge Cooling Systems in your car you may be able to help me with this one!
My engine bay is much to hot which rises my Air Intake Temperature to very high levels, even when stationary it runs at around 55c and at 80 mph almost 70c, I believe I am being robbed of a lot of power due to this, from my research at idle my Air intake Temp should be around 28c and at 150 mph it should not rise above 50c (depending on ambient temp) from my research I understand that when the Air Intake Temp raises to high levels the ECU will start to alter the timing (resulting in the reduction of BHP) start dumping fuel into the cylinders in order to cool down the engine and prevent "detonation" also thesuperchargerr can cut out, am thinking of taking my car to CP Racing as they seem to do a lot of work on the 55K engines and they seem to have had a lot of experience, has anyone heard or dealt with them or could arecommendationn be madeelse weree? There is no BRABUS in the UK only "Brabus Body styling fitters!"
my current BRABUS Charge Cooler setup comprises of two Charge Cooler pumps (Bosch and BRABUS)
and two Charge Coolers, the original AMG and the BRABUS addition.
any help would be appreciated.
