Nah, I'll probably get an aftermarket water temp. and oil temp. gauge sometime in the near future (probably coinciding with my FMIC)

PICS!!!

Believe me, when you do In fact get an Oil Temp Guage (with having a FMIC) you will wish you got one sooner and than maybe you will start addressing the ducting etc.

I'm actually looking Into getting a fan for my Oil Cooler b'c of this.
