Can you tell this is an E-flow?

New Technology just for your Corsa or Spyder

Finally a thermistor replacement

Through the years we have donated materials to people who have tried to accomplish this. It has finally paid off. Vairtrix has created a thermocouple that replaces the Corvair thermistor. We are currently in the testing period but we can tell you it works great. More heat and vibration testing. More road time. Then we will be able to offer them to the public.

First test update: after 1000 miles, still works great. Interestingly, I just had a seat drop and replaced with two of our rebuilt heads. Before this my temperatures ranged from 300 to 450 depending on how I was driving. When the seat dropped, it dropped perfectly even, simply holding the valve closed and I was a half mile from the shop, so I just coasted in, so no temperature change occurred. In addition the thermocouple was in the good head. Since I got my new heads my temps range from 300 to 375. 5/10/17

Second test update: My test vehicle is a 180 HP, turbo. I use it to test all the turbos and carbs I rebuild. Because my temp gauge is so accurate and responsive I now use it to help determine the quality of the components I'm testing. Interestingly, I now have my own setup so it does not exceed 320 degrees. We have begun selling these units; provided the customer is capable of giving us feedback. This will broaden our testing. After issues with a customer's gauge we are now offering calibrated gauges. It is simple to know if the gauge is out of calibration a diagnostic is run every time the key is turned on (shown in the video).The gauge, during its diagnostic should go to 400 if it pauses above or below, it needs calibrated. If you want a second opinion, testing it with a 140 ohm resistor for a Spyder or a 180 ohm resistor for a Corsa will take it to 400 as well. If its accurate. 7/6/17

Last update: Still works great and they are for sale now. $150 for standard. $260 for monitoring both heads on your single original gauge. 12/01/17
