they might have to remove the engine to really do a great job with the thermowrapping of everything.

also get some thicker samco radiator hoses and a stainless steel clutch line and thermowrap that as well and thermowrap the AC lines. hell even a bigger power steering cooler wouldn't ever hurt. It isn't cheap to do it all but that's just about everything I can think of

Some Thermotec header wrap to go over all the piping, Jethot coat the stock headers, Larger radiator, power steering cooler, oil cooler, oil pan spacer, Iso thermal plenum gaskets with MD spacer, vented hood. If you still have a cooling issue no turbo kit would be cool enough...

I might get flamed for this but in his case this might be the best option. As far as a turbo system and heat in the engine bay, this one should create the least amount

I dont think they have one available right at the moment but it is in the works.

Just a idea

Or-I cant believe Im gonna say this-get a S/C, full exhaust and a nice tune. If you have traction and can drive 400whp that will get you low 12's easy....

I believe you will find that twin turbos will have higher turbine flow in most conditions, hence less exhaust back pressure. I'd also recommend that you run a very free flowing exhaust system (high flow cats or test pipes) to reduce most of the unwanted thermal load on the engine. Add a larger radiator, full flow engine oil cooler and then have the engine tuned by a local tuner who knows and understands the extreme environmental conditions in the UAE, good luck.

AS i said to you befor if you want 0%heat go for SC cause her in UAE the temp reach to 50c so SC is the best for you and if you look for turbo then you should do same what mip said to make all ur mainfold Jethot coat,heavy dutey oil cooler,make sure all your lines are coverd with heat wrap,i mean think about cooling 200%

In reality it's the bi product of high power that generates higher engine tempertures - not whether you compress the charge air via a mechanical or exhaust gas driven compressor.

If the Z car owner is really concerned with higher engine temperature then an efficient radiator and full flow engine oil cooler should be considered as mandatory equipement for the UAE.
