Cooling Advise! err not you, the engine...

hey guys, i dunno about all the other guys who removed your A/C, but once i got that condenser(? cooler? whatever, its the radiator like thing in front of the radiator.) outta there, my normal engine temps went from half guage all the way down to 1/4 guage, and this is with hotter weather too! if any of you guys are having cooling problems, this is somthing to consider

*Keep in mind that my engine is unique, its only running on one rotor....heh*

I've experienced this myself, as well as heard from others, that Coolant temps go down considerably. I'm not sure why except theorize that the removal of the Condenser (Radiator like) allows more air to the actual Radiator.
