    I've run the Tridon 76 degree for the last 4 years and temps rarely hit 80 pottering around (I'm 74) or hwy running.
    I did a run to Lorella Springs in May loaded to 3.5t and towing 2.7t and it was easy to get over 100 into a slight headwind if I pushed it a bit. On one long climb I got it to 115 with EGTs at 450.
    Average running temps during that trip were in the low 90s most of the time but easy to get higher if you try to maintain 100 or so with that weight.

    It was a really good workout and I swear it has never run better since that trip. This is a 140+ rwkw TD42T factory turbo running a modded 11mm and a P4x4 18G.
    I run the stock water pump (JPC on the list) but with a G35 fan and over-oiled hub. 52mm 3 core all ally rad.
