Considering that I live in Chicago and the traffic, I can't beat her that hard. Yes I will accelerate hard from time to time but it's mostly city streets and dealing with traffic.

Daily city driving with high humidity is actually worse than long highway drives on temps.

220 shouldn't cause it to run "sluggish" take that brand new car to the dealership and get it checked out.

Mine hits 220 often when we have hot days out here, but I have had it hit that when just playing a bit on a 60 degree night. It still didn't get sluggish. This should not be happening an oil cooler is always a good thing but your car should have one stock shouldn't it?

The car is not pulling timing, but he might be having some heat soak with the stock intakes.
The plastic boxes help a little but once it gets the engine bay temps up it is hard to get them down.
