Well I did it. Dropped coolant temps to 180ish. And I think it looks great.
Core mounted and working on piping
With 2ga cover. So much waste.
20min with tin snips.

Ah man, thats why I don't want to hack my bumper, ugly ass edges... I would rather rivet in a RRE hood vent to lower the temps...

and under hood temps isnt what I was worried about. Its actual coolant temps. Without the FMIC and that upgraded radiator I was getting 170ish* and after I was at 210ish*. After hacking it up to allow air to flow over the fmic my temps went down to 185ish*. Also planning on fabbing up some ducting to help direct air to the radiator.

I think it looks good. Can't wait to see it with the edges softened.
