[QUOTE="Stangra, post: 16136610, member: 193061"] I upgraded my radiator at the same time I installed VMP HE with zero fitment issues caused by HE (radiator had it's own easily resolved minor fitment issues) A radiator upgrade along with a 170° thermostat is a good idea with the added power and will go a long way to controlling engine overtemp, but won't help control supercharger heat soak and keeping intake air temps down. With the extended use of boost on a road coarse this will be an issue, high IATs and your car will pull timing/power to prevent detonation. Anything to maximize intercooler effectiveness will help; better HE, better coolant flow, better air flow thru HE, etc. At road course speeds fans on the HE will actually hider air flow, usefull only in stop & go traffic (probably not using boost here anyway) or between drag pulls.
