Hello, fellow floridian. Yes I have installed Motordyne's, but have not measured before and after temps. This is not a mod you will be able to feel HP-wise, just a step forward in a series of small mods that may one day equal greater than the sum of their parts. Oh yeah, and had zero problems this past winter.

I got the coolant mod from Forged Performance. 350zDCalb put it on for me. I dont think you'll get hp from it but anyway to keep the engine cooler helps.

Are you talking about the Pathfinder mod?

I think the OP is talking about something different.

You may just have some cold idle issues, but that's about it.
