Default Cooling Question

Anyone got an idea, my car runs pretty warm and the only thing i can think is i have ground effects and POSSIBLY the air isn't getting pulled up underneath properly into the air dam? Lets not hear the "I don't like ground effects thing" I need info not opinions.

if your front valance is lower then the air damn...yes...it will block some flow....also remember however that, the gauge isnt exactly right

a tranny cooler will block some flow also but its designed to not effect the radiator that much.....i have one....

you might want to check that stat....aftermarket stats fail faster sometimes...also check your fans and what there coming on at....check your fluid level to and make sure you dont have any air bubbles
