glowing manifold supposed to happen? mbc install
I just installed my hallman mbc. I have a few questions for the mechanically inclined out there. Is the exhaust manifold suppose to be glowing after about 20 hard pulls? I was just dialing in my mbc, and i noticed a nice orange glow under the heatshield. Is this BAD?. Is the radiator fan supposed to have 2 connectors? I plugged one in and I can't find the other connector, but i only remember disconnecting one plug when i removed it. Am i right? Furthermore, according to my boost gauge i'm pulling about 21.8 psi and it tapers to 19.0 psi at redline in third and 4th gear. I put the mbc because stock i was spiking to 25.6 then tapering to 23.0 then tapering again to 16-17psi at redline in third gear. I did not hit fuel cut during my mbc adjustment at any point, so i think i'm ok unless someone tells me otherwise.

Yes, it can glow I get that when I do some hard road runs..
But you still need to be certain your tune isn't too lean and generating high EGT's.. But a glowing manifold is actually pretty normal under hard usage..
That fan controller only has one plug connected that I recall.. the other "connector" doesn't have anything connected to it.
