GM Heat Soak Reduction Kit


Price: $99.99


The original. Dont be fooled by cheap knock offs! 

 

Looking for a cost effective way to beat the heat in your GM equipped vehicle? Testing has shown that once the MAF sensor housing becomes heatsoaked your intake air temperature (IAT) sensor can read up to 50 degrees hotter than the actual temperature of the air being injested by the engine. So what does this mean for your engines performance? Precious timing is being pulled due to false temperature readings which not only slows your vehicle down but can also cause a slight decrease in fuel economy. Couple this with the fact that all OEM GM IAT sensors react pretty slowly to temperature changes and you've got a real mess on your hands!

 

Vector Motorsports is proud to introduce our Heat Soak Reduction Kit (HSRK) that will help you get the most of your GM vehicle. The kit includes all plug and play OEM quality components with no need to splice or cut the factory harness and we've done away with those slow GM OEM temperature sensors in favor of one that we designed that responds nearly ten times faster!  This has proven to not only make vehicles more consistent but also obviously faster due to the lack of timing retard being pulled from false readings. For example, in the staging lanes at the drag strip where a normal IAT sensor may just start to measure a change by the end of the quarter mile.  

 

One user with the LS2 version of this kit tested it back to back on a dyno. He recovered 8 RWHP with the kit plugged in verses not!

 

Q: Your sensor looks like a stock OEM old style sensor, what gives?

 

A: Beacuse we start with a GM OEM sensor HOUSING and then add our own proprietary sensor that reads 10X faster than stock, this translates into heat soak being reduced significantly! When you receive your kit you'll be able to see the changes we made to the sensor.

 

Q: Why dont I just relocate a stock sensor?

 

A: Because for the most part thats just a waste of time and money, why relocate the slow sensor you already have to a different location?

 

Q: Isn't this the same as the Ebay resistor scam?

A: No, this is a real solution to a real problem. This kit does not "trick" anything into thinking it is a cooler temperature outside. It simply allows the ECM to get a better idea of what temperature the air actually is.

I have had this heat soak reduction kit for about 4 weeks now. I have not really noticed any changes. I am not saying it doesn't work, but it was somewhat hard to find the right size drill bit. Vector did send me a grommet with my order but it fell during installation and it took forever before I could find another one that worked. If you have an extra $111 to spend, which is what the total came up to for me, then I would say it is worth it, if you don't have it extra, then don't worry about it. I am now getting ready to get an intake, and so I will have to do this all of again possibly. It is easy to install after you have the grommet and the right size drill bit. O'Reilly's is a better place to find a grommet as well, there "Help" section is much better. Just for the record. Hope you can make a good decision.
