look the temp

Thanks. Clearly your arrangement works, within the constraints of available space, for what you do. You have some options to improve cooling should you need to, for example by fitting vents in your bonnet.

Can you give me some feedback on how you get on if you do some long high power runs, for example on a track day? I'm curious to compare with my arrangement; I have a broadly-similar rad and my intercooler is roughly the same size as yours in a different, more theoretical, arrangement (intercooler exhaust air through bonnet vents, rad exhaust air split between bonnet vents and over engine/turbo/exhaust manifold) that I expect to be efficient (good cooling, low drag) and avoid heat soak.

I like your display. What engine data can you get on it? I'm looking to put a Nexus tablet in my sat nav hood, primarily to provide a modern sat nav and music inputs (eg stored music and internet radio) to the car's stereo. I want to put engine parameters on there too but my car has an Apexi PFC that can't provide the data and OBDII data from the RX8 PCM has minimal benefit. I hoped I'd be able to find gauges/sensors that I could feed into the Nexus for, say, EGTs, oil pressure and oil temp, but I've had no success so far; its a little way down my To Do list though.
