Power steering fluid boil?

I boil the power steering in autocross runs on the 350 if temps are over 75f. Install a larger cooler and go to a higher temp fluid. For an HPDE

I boil the power steering in autocross runs on the 350 if temps are over 75f. Install a larger cooler and go to a higher temp fluid. For an HPDE car, this will be sufficient. Autocross...not so much. We don't have enough speed to make effective use of a cooler, and we turn 25+ times a minute.
