You're coolant temp hits 250 by the end of a quarter mile pass?

He is boosted and this part of Texas gets stupid hot and humid. I run the CSF w/Mishimoto thermostat and have a COMP oil less turbo (which uses coolent) and I max out around 240 when racing/pushing it. Looking into SPAL fans for this season.

After multiple passes it would hit 250, think of running the 1/4 mile, getting back in line and going again, repeat.
The other advantage aftermarket (CSF that I know of) has over the stock is how much quicker it will lower the temps. I could hit 240 and it would sit for 20 minutes like that without dropping at all, but with the CSF I can hit 220 on spirited driving and after I let off the throttle it starts going down at 30 seconds by 2 degrees.
