He has a v-mount... and he knows the labor and money put into it. He probably thinks having it done by this weekend is a long shot (and it may be) if you have a job anyway.

Ok so I'm happy to report back with great news!!! After just cuttin a larger hole in the front of my crappy bumper I ran my car around in town at 182*-189*! The most I saw was 192* up a large hill at 2-3 psi. Now it's time for a nice sheet metal covering for in between the bumper and rad support to help a lil more. Maybe a hint of water wetter as well???

I think this picture will upload. I never uploaded one before :P
After just this cutout my car runs cooler!
yes I know the bumper is beat up, cracked, zip tied and dirty! It's my test bumper before I go vmount and put the new one on after new fenders.
Thanx for all the help guys even though the things I did that didn't fix the cooling issue did help a lot! My throttle responds so much better after the TB was cleaned!
