i30 N Performance track & daily

[R Veloster N]

Intercooler, sport-cat and flexpipe are the next parts to come


I don't think it makes any difference for track usage if the plate opens at 70 or at 90°C.
Once it's on temperature it stays open.
But for daily usage it's important. However for now my quick & dirty fix is duct tape on the front grill

With the larger FMIC it will all the way around. Cooler operating temps from the intake, will also reduce overall heat and heat soak from the engine. Additionally, it's preferable to have the oil circulating thru the cooler at lower temps, which will also reduce IAT's, heat soak and boost performance especially in slower close proximity traffic. A cooler running engine produces more horsepower.

If you really believe you have to; simply design and manufacture a pullover sock out of Gortex material, with a pull tie or elastic to cover the cooler. Sort of a small bag with a pull tie. This will still allow air to circulate but slows down the airflow thru the cooler itself.

Start out with something like this making it slide over the cooler. Remove the straps and add a pull tie or elastic to hold it securely on the oil cooler. Nothing fancy

true, but this happens by default with the Airtec oil cooler. Some oil will always go through the cooler.

Instead of putting something in front of the cooler, I think the long-term fix would be just exchanging the thermostatic pellet to one that works both for daily driving and track usage.


@Fishmasta The thermostat stays closed during high temps and not open
The Mocal thermostat is open when it's cold and closes when the oil reaches the operating temp of the pellet. Just to prevent some potential confusion.

This ^ is correct, about 12% or so will always flow thru the cooler as designed. At 194 degrees Fahrenheit the heat from the engine oil, is within normal operating range 195 - 220.

and always use a good clamp on your oil lines. i lost an engine because my mechanic used the push on barb style.

Long time no see :O
The engine oil cooler is doing a brilliant job.
Also in the meantime the 200 cell cat with flexpipe has been installed.
Unfortunately i missed to do some pics.

In addition a bought an additional fun upgrade and since the warranty void last month it was the Pipercross and not the Hyundai version:

Car got a little tune
I think gain is fine for a pre-facelift.

Hello My Dudes
Got My Hyundai i30 N 2020 on 19/07/2023
Am so Happy to Own one and Drive it each day as really has turned my heart into a Dream Car
Probably will stay till She cant drive anymore.
At the moment she has 43.000 km on and Runs smoothly with 0W-30 for start.

​

(Still have to pay her off but I am dead certain to keep her forever or as longs as I am alive on the Road)
I wish to improve up on my Forum posting skills but not sure how to do it much.

maybe that's worth starting an own tread instead replying to an existing one

I am not good with forum posting
I am however good with driving my i30N

Some looks upgrades
Got FL rims for daily use

And while mounting newer and larger exhaust pipes

I found some rubber Nordschleifen-Leftovers hidden in my wheel archs and rear bumper

Looks astounding my dude,at my workplace I can see another fellow i30N with almost same but only the side with the N livery.
I'm sure isn't yours as the license here is different.
Never meet them,yet.
