Well the louvers that was cut into my son's LX- not sure if it helped with heat soaked engine bay. I already have the hood risers but I don't have a sensor to measure the temp inside the engine.
The ambient temp was above 101 last week and over the mountain passes (7k to 11k) elevation my ECT peaked at 200° and my IAT at 145°. I could imagine how hot the engine bay was......i def need a stainless dorkel to bring tha IAT down and the Aussie 79 hood would prob help a lot more

Have you thought of adding a temp sensor inside the engine bay? Where should it be placed? I'm thinking of installing one to my 93 Turbo.
