Default Supercharged and over heating
Any of my supercharger guys have a problem with their cars getting really hot? Mine is running at about 230-235 and the Ac stops blowing cold at idle. Yes I have a 160 thermo and the fans are working and coming on before 220.

Can't help, just suggesting you ask in the C6 Forced Induction Forum.

Some SC kits seem to be better then others with this. Maybe a Dewitts radiator upgrade is needed.

No problems, the max temp I hit was 205* in 95* weather stuck in traffic. I do have a 160* thermostat and the tune does take that into consideration.
