Welcome. seems like a nice car.

Get yourself an undertray. It helps with cooling.

It put down 453 at 20 lbs with a rediculous boost leak! Steven said if i would fix the boost leak he would guarentee another 200hp out of it. It pulls great i like it!

Your like the second person to tell me that! Which is exactly right because it dont run hot per say but it definitally doesnt stay cool like it should! Next question is where do i find a undertray for it?

regards to the undertray, I don't break 85 without one and I have my fans set to turn on at 85 also, that's with an FMIC and Koyo rad, I haven't done the FC thermoswitch and I don't think the previous owner did either.

See as long as im cruising around thats about where mine stays at but when i get into it ive seen it get up around any where from 90 to 92 which obviously isnt good! where can i just buy a undertray? or do i have to have something made?

and thanks everyone for the comments!

Awesome

Great looking ride. Engine looks nice and clean. 453 is a lot of power. I have a massive leak too. I can't make over 11 psi right now.

Well good luck and welcome to the club.
