The car has certain presets built in, you can "overcool" the car and cause a CEL if it does not warm up fast enough.

On the venting side:
-Vented hood
-Vented fender liner (GTM sells a prefabbed one but you can DIY it)
-Undershroud
-Better heat management (Wrapping intake pipes, headers, etc)

Cooling:
-Tune with fan speed adjustment
-Radiator upgrade
-Radiator fan upgrade
-Oil cooler
-Radiator fluid swap (doing a blend of antifreeze & water)
