    Yesterday I added a full lower grill block, after picking up the upper grill block from Daox last week. Based on the weather we've had so far, it's going to be a cold, snowy winter. :'(


    I used an unfolded paper grocery bag to make a rough template.


    Then cut the coroplast and attached with zip ties. If I use it again next year, I'll paint it, but I think it's funny as it is right now so I'm gonna leave it. #recycling

    I use an UltraGauge in the car and I've got it monitoring engine temperature & intake temperature, but what intake temp is too hot? It gets rather warm when the car was up to temp, stopped for a little bit, and restarted, but it cools down reasonably once moving. I also wish there was a way to see how frequently the cooling fan runs to maintain the max temp with the grill blocked.
