Nice, I'd be curious to see what temp drop you'll see with the airflow changes. Are you DIY'ing the brake ducts or buying a kit?

Also, in case it helps, I saw a decent water temp drop last year when I replaced my leaking OEM radiator. There was so much dirt baked into the vanes that was severely impacting cooling capacity, and that's with occasional water hose cleaning.
