Water stays consistent right at 212-220

So the race shop doesn't think it's a radiator capacity issue. When we moved the oil cooler to the old air intake location we lost a little square footage.

We are using the DCT duct that is on the left side of front. Dropping the oil cooler below as to not block the DCT cooler. What is happening with the oil is this. Car get up to temp just fine and then levels off around 245-255 but then after 15 Min session starts to creep up. We are battling the creeping effect.

Because of the low press created by the fender and hood vents. Don't think it will be necessary to duct it up to the vents. Should just happen on its own. Running the car Wednesday and will report back.
