HELIX FMIC Update

If you're wondering how the new Helix FMIC handles really hot weather, it does just fine. In the blast furnace we had here yesterday with temps of 111deg, the IAT was "only" 113!

you California people are killin me!

It's been that hot here everyday since April LOL!

And yes....the Helix still does great! But when ambient temps are that hot, you need something more than the IC....and that's where water/meth injection steps in

Yet I still don't have a kit....soon though hopefully, it will go nicely with my JCW turbo
