i just wonder how will you keep the engine cold?
no need of fans or watercooling?
i really would like to try a DLE222 on a car but i am too "young" with engines today...

Well so far things are looking good. I will know more after more tests but now it seems that it will stay within temp limits without any fans. But the summer isn't here yet. I don't know what will happen at +30C... time will tell.

I decided to add more strength to the drivetrain. I took out all 3 plastic differentials and replaced them with aluminum differentials. Earlier I thought that The billet aluminum housings with plastic differentials would be enough but now I don't think so anymore. I also added an adjustable Limited Slip (adj. between 0<->90%) system to the center differential and aluminum center diff mounts. So now the entire drivetrain is 100% metal.
