^Yes... if nothing else this proves one does need to get the heat exchanger system running. "If" mine is properly working and im seeing temps that high, Id hate to see what no heat exchanger would be.

So i'm convinced that an s/c is the way to go. Do you like it so far? As in would you trade it for anything else in it's class?
im so biased cuz the ease of install and ease of tuning.
I love mine.
I love mine as well.
Datalogged on Ethanol 94 tonight and we didn't see any knock until the IAT was well over 100*C (That's 212*F for our friends in the U.S.
)
The temps are not in that range all the time though, that was after 5 WOT runs, a few of which I hit the governor. The IAT's are usually around 70-80*C for me at WOT. I was running 11.75 PSI on the stock pulley.
And yes, I do plan on intercooling very soon.

After having both I REALLY want to go back to my turbo.
I'm considering putting the sc up for sale and keeping the turbo.
ive driven both a turbo and s/c , and ill never do turbo unless its a factory turbo car
i love mine but if i want to go fast i go get on my GSXR
^^^^ Thats what my friend says too, except instead of a cavalier, he owns a 99 dodge ram V8.
cool that beast down!!!!!
bigger heat exchanger.......will help
channeling air to the he...will help
mabey a bigger pump, what size pump are you running right now?
and if you have a resivior tank(aka burp can) mounted higher than the rest of the system its impossible to have a air bubble in the system
