[QUOTE="ReplicaR, post: 1310747, member: 9209"] Honestly, it really depends on what I'm doing. On the hwy I'm usually seeing 180 degrees depending on weather. I saw it get higher before in very high heat, but that's rare. On the track, it's all over the place, I've seen it get as high as 240, at which point I usually start doing cooldown laps. Another thing to consider is that I have a completely different engine than you (fully built vs. mildly modified), so comparison isn't that valid really. I will give you some tips through. 1. Make sure that the shroud is good. While in motion you want as little restriction as possible. Stock shroud creates a lot of blocking. Try upgrading to Mark 8 fan, and making that work. That's what I've got on my car, but I had to move overflow bottle and computer to make it work. 2. Possibly time for a vented hood? Go the route I went, and do a GT500 vent in a stock hood. It's cheap and it is effective. [/QUOTE]
