Running warm, tried to burp

tstat is new RT1085 properly installed, pulleys are oem...idk what UD are so I guess that's a 'no'....I haven't driven this car on a reg basis for about 6 months. Only done repairs. I'm about to start using it as my dd. I just want to do whatever I can to make my dd run as cool as possible. I'll first confirm PCM temp readings with an IR

thanks for the tips
 
If you are actually seeing 205-215* while at speed, then you may see some improvement from a replacement radiator. A 03'-04' Cobra radiator/fan would take things a big step further. You will not be able to reduce stationary temps without lowering the fan settings in the tune file.
 
I'll tell you what, if you decide it's the radiator there's plenty of info online about how to improve flow in your existing radiator. For example running CLR or vinegar through it. Also, removing the radiator and knocking loose crap that may be in the bottom of it. If I remember right, the theory was that with it out you could turn it upside down to get the crap out of it.

My car might have the same issue so you try it on your car and then I can learn from your mista...I mean experience.:p
