Cooling setups on your boosted cars

Wrapping the mani in DEI heatwrap also does wonders for coolant temp. My sheepey was wrapped and I never had any issues keeping the coolant temp under 189. I run schmuck mani now that I haven't warped yet, with the A/C on, even when driving down the highway the car temps will continue to rise to overheating until I turn the AC off.

I recently replaced my crappy mishimoto fans with spal fans on Mishimoto shroud. Yes they are a complete drop in, you want the 12" version. Get the curved blade fan for less wind noise. Part#30101522. youtube SPAL LHT and click on the first video and they give a great example.

So after some data logging today with ambient temps at around 107, I looked over the logs and have my intake temps hovering between 120-130 and my coolant temps peaked at 218 on a lengthy uphill with the AC on from the moment I got in the car. Definitely gonna upgrade to SPAL fans soon, is there a direct drop in for oem mounting holes (don’t mind rewiring to battery)?

Warning do not get mishimoto fans! Will be posting results here later but i did a comparison between spal and mishimoto 12" fans and basically spal fans flow more air. Are quieter, and are slimmer!

I put the stock passenger fan back on and got a SPAL extreme fan for the driver side. 0 issues with cooling (and I'm using a water to oil cooler so my water side is heavily tasked).

I just switched to mr sideways radiator and spal thIn fans. I’m still having cooling issues. I don’t think it’s bled right as it heats up to 218+ when it’s 90+ degrees outside with ac on and not much load. As soon as I stop at a light it drops back down. Very frustrating. But we do like the quality of the parts.
