Zarticus Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 A month ago I pulled a trailer with my 800 lb motorcycle on it threw the mountains with my 2016 connect, It was in the low to mid 90's & my vans temp gauge never moved. Why do you want an upgrade ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you pay $. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifty150 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 In case rallybag is still paying attention....... most race car builders upgrade the cooling system because they have upgraded performance engines. Follow the flow. Start with a lower temperature thermostat. Some engines will delete the pulley driven water pump and replace it with an electric water pump. Backing the custom radiator are high CFM electric fans set to operate at different temperatures, with seperate thermostatic switches taking readings from the inlet and the outlet of the radiator. Depending on what you're building the car for, you need to take other metrics into consideration. If you're only running 1/4 mile, and you're looking to cover it in less than 9 seconds at over 200 mph.......how are you going to do that in a Transit Connect?
