i just completed install on dual pass+b and a cxr h/e. ive bled most of the air out of the system. I noticed driivng today that the radiator temp got up to 216 sitting in traffic. is this normal? just want to make sure the new equipment isnt blocking airflow and cooling for the engine.


Also, how warm should the s/c feel after install of cooling mods listed? I was able to keep my hand on it, but it was warmer than ambient.

thanks,

radiator temp doesn't have anything to do with your dual pass or intercooler system, its totally separate and 216 is normal sometimes in traffic, usually once the fan kicks on then it drops.

yep. It is perfectly normal to see the coolant temps reach up to 230 when sitting in traffic. As far as IAT tempuratures, only way to read those is to have an aftermarket guage, like aeroforce, or hptuners.
