Does it run that hot cruising down the freeway? How about at night when it’s cool out? What kind of ambient temperatures? Have you looked through the grill to see if the radiator is obstructed with garbage? Does the fan work? What kind of “larger intercooler”? Is the coolant bottle full? Lots of questions and things to look at.
