No I haven't , my thinking is that because
I dont want to run bonnet louvres, and I have a large alloy sump guard fitted I simply can't get the air out of the engine bay.
It's interesting when I have the car jacked up and running, how much better the flow is when the fans kick in when the sump guard is off...and how when it's bolted back on, you can hear the fans working harder, with much reduced flow past the guard.

I'm running a 16mm "T" connector immediately at the start of the heater inlet pipe at the top of the engine, which runs down to the pump, then on the return leg runs into another "T" just before the heater pipe return hits the water pump.
So effictively its a circut that bypasses the heater unit (but the heater can still operate if needed)

You could also replace sections of the lines to/from the rear rad with something like this
CK100-8 Single 16 Inch Pass Heat Sink Super Flow Fluid Cooler.
Also if you don’t have already a radiator mister helps a lot. A lot of rally guys use this.

Yeah those heat sink coolers could be good, but its a super tight squeeze to even get 5/8" hose to the rear and back, and tucked in so it wont get hit by rocks etc.
I think you're right about the water mister, that could be my final play if I still have dramas.
