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.
dAvenue and Drex like this.
