Also try the supercharger value 12 at a higher number like 7. There will be a more noticeable difference then, but for sure it will get hotter.

If the temp does go up too high after trying the timing changes maybe you could use a smaller pinion? Its hard to tell exactly how fast your track is without seeing it in person I guess.

Thanks Mike,

We tried some settings similar to the ones you have mentioned, I think a lad was helping me sort it out, and we got a temp up around 95C. Pulling back the settings towards the cooler range brought the temp back down to 70C. To be sure I will try the settings you have mentioned and see how we get on.

Thanks Reece
