I'm glad you are up and running again.

I also have no issues with the A/C on in traffic at 90+ degrees. I have the stock cooling system with an oil cooler. The KW supercharger did not affect the coolant temperatures in traffic.

Any one running after market radiator ? I will try to bleed when I go home and check it if it's low .. If not may go back to stock radiator .. My mechanic said it maybe to large for the water pump to keep the correct flow .. Just a thought

Mechanic is making stuff up. Water pump doesn't give a crap how big the radiator is

It must just be not properly bled, that's about the only thing that would make sense.

Are you going by just the bars on the dash, or do you have a serial gauge or datalog with the specific coolant temps you were hitting? it's possible it just isn't displaying correctly on the dash, but i thought the AEM V2 had that corrected for our cars.

mechanic is billman and he was only speculating ... He said maybe the common denominator is my radiator cause I dident see anyone post up with other than stock cooling system .. I hope it's just air .. I will do bills bleeding method .. Yes it is only dash lights .. And I do feel like it's not correct because it goes back down pretty fast .. Bill said to hook the comp up and check the temp that way if possible but I ain't computer savvy and only have an apple computer ..
