Re: 2G auto S/A daily

I was constantly fighting to get my 1G to stay cool. A different (less dense) FMIC ended up helping a lot, but still was always a struggle. Lower temp thermostat, higher pressure rad cap, water wetter, fans always on, ducting, and the ETS FMIC (replacing a dense garrett core) I was finally able to get the car to stay more normal. Forget turning on the A/C though. That was probably one of my biggest complaints/annoyances with my 1G, just not overheating.
