This talk about exhuast and by extension engine compartment temps reminds me of an article i just read in Road and Track (comparing Boxster S, Z3, Honda 2000, Audi TT). It seems that the TT has a temp sensor connected to the ECU that measures engine temp and allows the ECU to back off turbo boost pressure wehn the temp gets too high. Maybe useful info for those inclined to install the 1.8 turbo in a van - single or biturbo ;) Alistair |
