Keven,

Just wondering if I could get a little X20 motor advice for use in touring car. I am running a 4.5T X20 through a Speed Passion GT2.0. The speedo has not boost, 20% drag brake, and the motor is using the 27.5° timing insert with no fan. The track size is 96x42' and I'm coming off at 180°F (82°C) with a final drive of 9.25 and 204°F (96°C) using a 8.51 final drive. Adding a fan will help, but what would you recommend for gearing and motor timing and where would you expect my motor temp to land?

Thank you so much for any recommendations!
-Sam
