Ok, I'm hoping you guys can give me an idea of what is going on with my car.

The car runs absolutely amazing when I get in the car and start off. Once the car starts to heat up the temp gets to about 205 degrees... The Temp outside has been around 105 so I think this is maybe an issue also. Once the car gets to 205 degrees it completely dies it wont idle, cruise, absolutely nothing until it cools back down.
I was told to move the map sensor off the manifold and mount it on the firewall so maybe it wont get so hot.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

Hmmmm, the temps haven't affected my car at all gabe. Is the car overheating?

Try bleeding the coolant. It's a bitch to get all the air out

 

Have you done any maintenance lately? Want to tell us some more about your setup also?

 

How are you determining that the car is at 205? In older cars pistons would swell and not allow you to move, I haven't ever heard of these motors doing that.

 

I don't know what would cause this, but I'd suggest venting your hood to reduce temps and hopefully keep it from happening. Here's the DIY thread:

Where are you reading the temps from?

I have a vented hood & vented bumper... The motor is completely built top & bottom end. Im reading the temp from the ecu connected to my computer Im running the AEM 1052U.

Im running at 27lbs of boost.

 

This ever get solved Gabe?

 

205 is pretty much perfect temps for fuel combustion and atomization. research what are actually "good temps" for power, etc.

seems like a coolant temp to fuel trimming issue in the map.
