Without anything inherently causing water temps to climb, there is no reason the car will run hotter. The intercooler in front alone is not enough to overheat the car. So during the 99% of the time you aren't flooring it, there is no chance of overheating. When you do floor it, in a street car, it's very short lived in comparison to a track car where any time not braking is full throttle. Even doing back to back highway pulls I've had no problem. A street car doesn't have the room to stretch its legs to saturate the cooling system before there is a chance for it to shed any climb.

For most people this might apply but for me this didn't. The way I drive my car is hard even on the street and my water temp use to get up there. Also with traffic sometimes with my car my water temp would raise slightly.
