How hot is hot ? Some vehicles run hotter than others
What is the EGT ? My Navara runs at 590c a little on the high side but acceptable according to Dyno Tune @ 100 k speedo ( thats after the turbo )
Does it have Turbo Lag ? I did have a bad case of it from new, and the local Nissan agent refused to believe me, or do anything about it, so I took my business elsewhere, and had it fixed @ 20 k on the speedo. Never have been back to that agent. I have a great mechanic, and went back to him, and is about 1/4 the price of the Nissan agent ,, and is more thorough..
Do you just switch it off after a hard drive ?,,naturally you have to let the turbo
cool down, I do not like the idea of all that heat under the bonnet, and not to mention that the turbo is still spinning, so it needs motor oil for lubrication. A turbo timer will help there, if not a 2-3 munite wait before shutdown.
These are some of the questions that you need to ask yourself, ?
Yes a good Dyno tune may fix all, and with a bit of luck get your LC 100 up and running real good
Cheers mate
