Default Too Cool... Purple Ice?
I have an DD '07 LS2 A6 w/23k, live in Miami FL so you get an idea of the temps.

Mods are gonna be...

ARHeaders/Catted Xpipe & FMs
NGK plugs/MSD wires
Airaid/Ported TB/Stage 2 Ported Intake
160 Thermo & Fans will come on sooner
"safe" Dyno tune w/TM ...

Going to add 1 bottle of Purple Ice to 70% tap/30% DexCool (per Royal Purple rep)

Syn oil weight will stay at factory specs.

Question is can I run too cool for those mods?

Did a search but so much different feedback and old was hoping to find an updated answer...

Thanks

Im pretty sure temp wont be a problem. Your motor is going to make heat no matter what coolant additives you use.

You will be more than fine. I've run close to a handful of water watter bottles in my car with zero issues and safe cooler temps.
