i'm not turbo yet...but i've been playing with the heat..i live in houston, tx and its hot....by cleaning out my engine bay, shimming my hood. and slanting my radiator so that cool air goes around the radiator helped out....now when i open my hood after i get home its not to hot at all....i will be using a custom slant mount for intercooler and radiator when i do go turbo.....and i'll end up using an rx7 radiator too...its like two times as thick..vs. Stock KA. its was a freebie too....and yea i have one electic fan from a newer 240 which i don't even use right now,,,,not even in traffic.....Temp needle dosent even move.....there goes one idea(slant fixture)
