any lower then 12.5:1 pre boost will suffer hahaha! Well when you think about it we are making 200+ HP (depending on mods if any) from a tiny little 2.0L so it makes sense this sucker gets hot we work/rev the crap out of it to make power. Aftermarket headers also introduce alot more under hood heat. The engine bay is also sealed for the most part so that is part of it
