low temp thermostat and porsche coolent change, Highly recommend redline "water wetter"- 10$. It lowered my max temputure by 15 degrees.
Also if you are going to do the thermo, then I would also put in a new waterpump. It is bound to go out soon if it is original.

I have a scan tool that shows real time water temps. I was getting 225 on a regular basis. Now I only get up to 210 max, usally hangs at 202.

You must remove the bumper and clean the radiators, and move the front radiators to get to the junk inbetween the two.

I bought a radiatior comb for 2$ at auto store to fix the bent vains.
