I went to the drag races on Sunday and the IAT's peaked at 162º. They dropped to 118º by the time I got back to the pits so the stock pump is working fine. Today I checked the water level in the super cooler and it took a cup to refill it, went for a drive and the temps went to 120º and parked there. Who knows what's normal? Will a new Johnson keep them lower? I've never had the dreaded supercharger shut down so apparently my IAT's don't reach that threshold. Anyone have any info on this? Do I need to spend more on cooling mods? (185º thermostat goes in this weekend.)

Ambient temperature is currently 95º to 100º. The track temp. was 107º on Sunday. Humidity is 100%.
