Well the car still runs alittle hotter with the ac but not much since the 2nd fan is there. But turning the heater on does help alot to lower the temp. But of course it sucks in the car cuz its hott

You guys have thousands of dollars in turbo set ups and no Koyo radiator? As soon as you get one you wont need to drive around with the heater on when its already 90* outside.

Upgrading the cooling system is on the list of things to do

You can either turn on the A/C or turn on the heat to reduce the water temp. As stated already, turning on the A/C turns on the second rad. fan. If you turn your heat on full blast, you are cooling down the water because you are blowing air over the heater core (a small radiator). Obviously, the AC way is easier on the driver

OG, your engine bay looks better than mine and that says a lot. I can't let this be, so I'll have to work on it.
