No worries. The VVEL system runs so hot in this motor. The whole engine acts as a heat pump generator basically. Even with this huge radiator with stock fan setting, the temp still gets up to 213F before the fan gets turned on. The ONLY way to ever overcool the motor is to run with a lower temp thermostat , like Mishimoto , which I would not recommend because that would turn on the Check Engine Light and overcooling the engine is not a good thing to do.
