when i had my mustang and a larger fmic even on hot days i could still touch the intake with out getting burned
this makes me think that the stillen air-water cooler is not to effective or it needs to be modifed
now i do have and oil cooler but i notice also that i was seeing just above 225 degrees when in traffic
Well of course it's hot! The coolant doesn't run in that area and the only place the coolant runs thru is the secondary intercooler built inside of the intake manifold so basically anything before the intake manifold it will be "HOT".
