Oil Temps vs Engine Coolant Temps


Stoffa

Recommended Posts

I dont trust my oil temp sender on my gauge and haven't got a proper oil temp sender in my sump yet, wondering if anyone has logged their car and can tell me how long your oil temp takes to get up to normal operating temps compared to engine coolant temp.

With light driving under 3000rpm and not boosting my ECT is up to about 85deg within 5-6mins.

Well if you want to compare your gauge, my gauge says the following (sender in oil filter sandwich plate):

Takes me the time between starting my car in the garage to getting to paremata round about to get to above 50 degrees, past second porirua offramp heading south to get to operating temp (~80 degrees).

~6L in there.

For some "real world" info that's actually applicable :D

5 mins for coolant to hit 88. Oil is at 60 by that point. Hits 88 after another 5-10 mins depending on load.

aint you supposed to hit the time travel switch when it hits 88 :)

Engage warp drive ;)

You will need to install gull wing doors for effect, and also make it fly, just in case when you get there, there isn't any roads.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
