[QUOTE="rrpederson, post: 13421386, member: 36898"] Hotcobra- I don't let it get so hot that it will puke coolant. I will pull it over and shut it down before coolant temps reach 222. Update** did some datalogging, still trying to figure out how to make use of the info, but today with no air conditioning, driving at around 70, temps stayed under 200 or so in 107 degree weather. After making note that the coolant temps weren't moving much, I turned the air conditioning on to see how hot it would get. By the time I got to my house, the coolant temps had risen to 220, and it looked like it might still climb. While I had the hood up to check if the fan was running, I checked the air flow through the top portion of A/C condenser, behind the snake. The air flow there seemed good, but when I felt the airflow at the intercooler, there is no airflow through the intercooler while sitting still. Also when I looked closer, I noticed the bumper support is another thing blocking airflow. I believe if I remove or modify the bumper support and some of that foam, and partially box in the radiator to direct air flow into the entire radiator and not just a portion, then that might be one step closer to my goal. What do you guys think? Thanks everyone for the replies and ideas. I really appreciate you. [/QUOTE]
