Rhitter Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Originally my obxt ran from 185-207f i went into the fan settings and lowered them quit a bit. It now runs between 179-189 never goes higher ever ! lowering the fan settings? Aka they turn on sooner? My OBXT build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowzor Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 How do you lower the fan settings? I wouldn't mind adjusting mine a little lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtonstilts Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I lowered them in misc threshold settings of the tune via romraider, i spent 2 weeks experimenting and watching the gauge till i sttled on the current temps. Ill takd a screen shot for you next time i use my laptop. Made a big difference on iat/underhood temps too as well as the at trans temps since they share a cooler in the rad..

rhino6303 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I run at 192 degrees pretty much all of the time. My car has an OEM thermostat and mishimoto radiator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_ryan Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 At normal highway speeds mine sits between 178-183. If I'm stopped it'll rise to about 203 before the fans kick on and brings it down the low 190s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtonstilts Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I run at 192 degrees pretty much all of the time. My car has an OEM thermostat and mishimoto radiator. Ive got mine running cooler without an upgraded radiator so the fan temp mod in the tune is very worthwhile. I havnt even seen 190f in over a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhitter Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 At normal highway speeds in 90+ temps I'll be right around 190 (or slightly lower) with the AC on full (coldest, most powerful AC fan settings) Going over mountain passes I hit 215 with the AC on full. Going over Mountain passes with the AC off but temp still turned to 65 and AC fan speed on high 210. 215 is about half way between the mid-point and the top white line on the temp gauge.

Nowzor Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 only one of my fans turns on even with the ac on. Do any of you know if this is a common problem for the secondary fan to not turn on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not on a 2008. As soon as I press the AC on button both fans turn on. My OBXT build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apexi Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I'd probably try replacing (or swapping) the relay(s) first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzr750r1 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Pretty much on point with all the averages here. 180 to 195 average. 207 pulling a grade at speed with the AC on. Can see 200+ in town with traffic. Fresh build pretty much a new stock radiator (10K ish on it). Just ordered a subtle solutions shroud for the top to capture more air through the radiator.

coldsoda Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 2008 LGT with 100% stock cooling system. Recently replaced OEM radiator with a new OEM radiator, and just did OEM parts for timing service. Sitting in phoenix traffic in the summer, AC going, its usually around 200. once or twice it hit close to 210 but that went back down to the mid-190s after the fans cycled. no complaints here.
