You don't let your car warm up before you drive it?

no...? I do if its below like 40, but usually not...

guess I've never heard of warming it up when its warm outside.

I'm always in Spring and the Woodland area in North Houston. I go to school in Huntsville so that is where my house is. But I work in the Woodlands and I come down like everyday to go out with my friends and what not. I really don't post much on H-I. I just use it to sell shit really

Well the idea of warming it up isn't because it is cold outside. It is to get the oil up to it's operating temperature so it properly lubes everything before putting it under load

Plus DSM's pull ignition timing under boost till the car reaches a certain temp

lol, I just don't.

I just don't stomp it when the motor is cold. I'll baby it till the thermostat opens up.

I understand that, but IMO babying it will do the same thing.

I guess I don't see a point. If I'm not reving to 4k on every shift it should be fine. lol

I think my thermostat is stuck open. It takes forever for it to warm up when it is cold outside. Doesn't really bother me at all though because I just warm it up to get the oil going.

I always look at it though to keep my dates right on the good meets and cruises. I hit the good ones up. Did you go on the HPD Galveston cruise that was posted on H-I?

HPD as in Houston Performance Driving.....not Houston Police Department. :lol:

eh, its not hurting anything but gas mileage. lol

 

[dc2GS-R]

As long as it isn't stuck closed then I don't care. You really don't hardly even need a thermostat in south TX. Alot of people just take them out instead of replacing them

 

[Kuchtaboy]

LOL! are you serious?

thats funny!

 

[dc2GS-R]

It doesn't get very cold here. As long as you can deal with your car taking 5min to warm up instead of 2. That really is the only drawback
