I think being able to force even the stock fans full on the I’ll be more useful.

those are some high numbers for just normal driving. I'm assuming those temps were during a stop right? still high temps but i think you should duct your front bumper area a little more, like this person did. pretty simple, some foam, but he did have a dedicated ducting on his oil cooler. He's on the site.

I believe you're not getting enough airflow in and out of your airstack. That vented hood should help tho.

Fans for low speed temps, ducting and vents improve with motion

Turning AC on will force the fans on. At 235°, it’s already on.

You are correct. I didn't think about AC being on.
