Man we had some problems with my ac not working when the weather got really hot. My oil temp stayed around 220 but under the hood was crazyyyyyyyyy hot. My suggestion buy a bigger radiator. As long as I was moving everything was good but once i stopped or idled around a parking lot the ac would blow hot air and the engine started running funny. thankfully i have a vented hood. I pulled the drip pans off and no problems so far. I havent seen hot hot weather without the drip pans tho so well see but im 100 percent sure thats gonna fix the under hood heat problem. My oil temp dropped 10 degrees after we removed the drip pan. Car is fast as heck. Of course before the turbo theres 20 cars a day trying to race me. Now its done nobody wants none lol. heating if the main problem with these things because the turbo piping is huge. All in all im very happy with it.
