New owner of 04-0010(11000 miles totally stock). Took it for a run & intercooler temp was 180+ & close to red line with a couple of boost romps(70 deg ambient). Dash temp shows normal. Backflushed the system, removed rust build from pump fittings(brilliant using steel instead of brass),checked impeller, etc. Pump & fans work. New anti freeze with wetter water & now I'm at a rock solid 165 deg. Coolant tank is 80 deg. Temp will go to 165 from cold idle, indicating to me that the sensor must be in cooling system somewhere since it's not in intercooler reservoir.
Searching the forum I'm reading of(stock) cars w temps of 120-130. Do I have an issue or is my sensor installed somewhere different? Bob
