I just had a big ass nitrous/turbo kit fitted to my ride by a local performance shop. big work to the internals and man this bitch is ready for work,the whore is a sleeper too .
Dudes you see i like trawling the highways for vettes & vipers to play with.
The other day i was out trawling and come up to a one of them Aussie Pontiacs GTO's so i gave him the finger and planted the boot into the carpet. Fuck man his eyes lit up and he gave chase. Now as you can tell my bitch ain't no slowcoach by any means but I had to give up the run cause the engine started to overheat once i hit a 100.
I pulled over to the side of the road and let the engine cool down a bit, as well as my brain. I waited for 3/4 hour or so and checked the radiator. It was nice and green and full to the top.
I started her up again and let it idle for a while. Engine reached normal temperature and fans cut in and out OK. Temp gauge sitting pretty now - no problems. Still . I drove off and took it easy on the way home and everything was sweet. I took it back to the shop and they check it out - no problems they say.
BTW: They put in a radiator, thermostat, water pump, hoses etc when they done the turbo job. All new Honda parts as well!! except for the goodies. like the ZEX Nitrous & DRAG Turbo kit. ECU, Injectors, exhaust, brakes suspension were all upgraded to suit the extra couple of HP.
They pressure tested it, checked the valve timing and tune - all OK. So I thought great all's OK.
So that nite I went out trawling again, well suck me dry & call me dusty if I didn't come upon the same dude in his GTO. Well he didn't need a invitation this time. We're into it again and the fucker started overheating again at speed.(100+). I slowed down to normal speed and the temp came back down to normal while cruising. Now I'm . Drove around for an hour all OK. give it some again on the highway and sure enough up went the temp gauge.
I drove back home stuck it in the garage and made a couple of choice phone calls. I told them to stick it up there ass and I'll go elsewhere.
I'm at wits end!! Spent all my dollars and this shit happens.
Any one here got a clue??
Sorry about the novel but I thought I'd explain it thoroughly.
