[QUOTE="SCGallo2, post: 15984234, member: 160791"] OP, can you clarify "running hot"? Engine cooling and intake air charge cooling are two separate systems and failures are not uncommon with either in these cars based on personal experience. You should verify that cooling fans and pumps and corresponding tune settings are all in working order before making any additional modifications. One can assume from your post that your IAT2 blower discharge temps were high, since you increased intercooler cooling capacity... but it's not good to assume... Just for comparison, at normal engine operating temp on the street a full 3rd and 4th gear highway pull on a hot day will easily push my IAT2s over 130*F. At the strip with my car somewhat cooled down, 1st through 4th gear WOT in cool air will push my IAT2s to 140*F at the quarter mile. This is with a fully functional mildly modded street intercooler setup, no ice. [/QUOTE]
