Looking forward to my build from The great guys over here at Lethal Racing, Much Thanks to Shawn and Chris at ECS. Can't wait to feel some real power I've been biting my nails waiting lol.

How is the additional heat handled with this kit? My understanding is that when adding a SC, the amount of heat that's added raises the temps pretty high? My concern is that for my daily driver and stop and go traffic, I'm going to be pushing pretty high temps potentially over a long period of time.

I added a Dewitt's rad and dual spal fans and electric water pump with my install, my temps are awsome even in this Texas heat at the time everything was installed our temps here in Texas was @102 high's, my coolant temps never get over 220 or so with a/c on unless parked for a long period of time. I think I seen it once at 228 after 220 a/c high pressure valve cuts off though even after letting some freon out to compensate the high pressure build up, but rarely have been sitting for long enough to reach that point, even at the track and not turning it off in line never got over 230. With a/c off cars runs smooth between 195-205 sitting 212.. Oil temps have been low as well @210-220 all the time with or without sitting.. I would deffenetly recommend the radiator and dual fans, and of course a oil cooler if you don't have the built in cooler in the rad like a z51 or z06. The fact is if your running a S/C or a high HP engine build your going to see higher temps so try your best to address them in your build before it becomes a prob is the way I felt about it..
Also the guys at Lethal Racing is the best you can't go wrong with these guys..
Shawn & Nick my car has been running awsome everytime I get in it,it surprises me
The next mod I do is the vented hood I think that will lower the temps just that much more I noticed when I was at the track in line for a while my temps were like 219 or so and I raised my hood and in no time it was at 196..
