I drove the car hard at 1.5 bar of boost and the techtom reading never passed 173. From 151-155 at idle it jumped to 173 at high speeds running high boost. That to me is amazing since my car used to run 178 at idle and sometimes used to go as high as 207. This new setup works very well. Even at 151, the stock temperature gauge is in the middle so the car isn't running too cold so the ECU knows the car is warmed up. Save yourself the mysery I went through with the Howe radiator and buy it from [ http://www.lvcm.com/gotboost/howe.html ] and OppamanZ can supply you with the colder Nismo thermostat.
