Yep, done = no codes stored. It's possible to have codes that do not trigger the CEL (check engine light).

You have about exhausted what you can or should do with a car still under warranty. Exactly what were the symptoms? Gauge on red, venting steam? Both?

Which mods do you think void your warranty? You know the mod has to cause the problem for the repair to not be warrantied, right? Look on sema.org, search for warranty. Tons of good info. If your mod list in your sig is accurate, I can't see anything that would cause the overheat. Have you hooked up with of the other SRT-4 owners in Germany? Must be at least 5 or 6 of them. Where in Germany are you at?

Man, I miss driving on the Auutobahn!!! And the beer!!! But not the rain/fog/ice.
BTW, when I said "turbo", it was a reference to the type of car, not a specific part. And I DIDN'T know that the turbo was cooled like that either...interesting.[sm=smiley4.gif]

There will be a novel later. Cliff notes for S2

Bigger cooler = not needed ynless you plan to go past 300 whp S2 stock = 265/280 street/race gas.

Fuel control NOT required for S2, see above

Gauges not really needed, I'll be adding two myself. I'll post a link later for a great gauge install how-to that puts them next to the boost gauge in factory mounting cups. Along with the PVO approved location for an EGT probe.

Right click and save as, the net is a fickle storage medium

Unless you want folks to see what your packing, I like this best

S2 will handle all engine mamngement functions. So it will not let you run lean. Your main desicion will be with Turbo Toys or not.
