Not so much but Factory standards show 125C is true redline. Either way, I started using the heater on max during my last session and the temps went down to 104C. I think a flush is in order.Quote:

You know, I haven't thought about that. The cooling system was redone (the works) 4 years ago. When the water pump does grenade and need to be replace, I'll probably upgrade to a stewart for the better flow capabilities. Until then, I should stick to summer track days near SF where temps are max at 90F lol. At $170 for the part, thats not too bad. I might have to do this with upgraded silicon radiator hoses.Quote:

Probably. At track speeds, I don't think the fan would make a difference. Also in 106F ambient air temps, I'm sure its not an ideal condition to be constantly pushing a car for 20minutes. I wasn't the only one with overheating problems.Quote:

Just get rid of the condenser, better airflow over the radiator :p
ROFL JP. Then ride home on the 5 would so killer without AC. Honestly though I think I may replace my radiator as well. I haven't replaced it and I don't know if the PO replaced it or not.Quote:
