Hi I've got an oil cooler, bonnet vent and heat extraction vents and no heat wrap on the exhausts. It doesn't generally suffer from overheating but, the vents aren't to everyone's taste but I quite like them. On the second of the two track days I've done at donny the temp did raise slightly more so if I kept it I think I would up grade to a twin core rad. I have used water wetter in the coolant and it did help the cooling a little. Best of luck sorting it mate. Mark
