First- I changed the thermostat back to an OEM one, and it solved the temperature creeping up.
Second- I installed Mishimoto aluminum fan shroud with two SPAL VA10-AP70/LL-61A12V fans over Jackson Racing 2in1 radiator + oil cooler v2.0. I plugged them directly into the oem fan sockets. And they're doing a terrible job cooling the car while it's in low speed or stuck in traffic.

- My questions are,

1- why I'm I getting poor fan performance much worse than oem?
2- Do I need special relays in order for the mentioned fans to perform at full capacity?
3-I was think that NG of buying your quad hood vents + the radiator duct. I'm just worried the latter won't be compatible with JR 2in1 Radiator.

My goal is to have a stable coolant temp around 88-90C° in all different driving situation and with ambient temperatures of over 45C°

Thanks in advance for your kind help!

BR,

The Mishimoto shroud+fans flow worse than stock. That is the issue.

Edit* saw you were using SPAL. However the shroud is still part of the issue.
