    Mine still runs hot. New radiator. 40 amp electric fan. Deleted the cat (solved my actual overheating on the freeway). But it will idle around town at 174 no issues. As soon as I hop on a freeway, AC on, she hits 207-209

    It use to be lower. I don't like a 30 degree difference between city and freeway

    Mine runs 186-193 around town and on the interstate with the AC on or off. Ive seen 195 if I'm climbing a long grade in 4th with the TQ unlocked on the interstate, but that's only been recently when it's been absurdly hot. Heat index has been 105-110 the last few days. I'm over summer...

    From what I hear, his products will be on the new SRQ site.



    Also I bought some Jeep JL coils on eBay. We'll see how low the rear is.

    You don't want this kit. Simply a proof of concept. But later on, I have no problem giving friends very good discounts, or even the DXF's once we reach production quality level.
