The previous owner did this modification. I do know my engine temperature gauge has never made it past 220F since I've owned it (9 months). __________________ His: 2001 Atlas Gray AR Tip RNS-E, XM, Yakima, Splashguards, Gorilla Mat with Cargo Blocks, Touareg Torchlight Hers: 2007 Deep Black Passat Wagon 3.6L Previous Family: '00 S4, '97 A4 2.8, '96 A4 2.8, '86 GT Coupe

Most folks temps are higher that I've seen. __________________ His: 2001 Atlas Gray AR Tip RNS-E, XM, Yakima, Splashguards, Gorilla Mat with Cargo Blocks, Touareg Torchlight Hers: 2007 Deep Black Passat Wagon 3.6L Previous Family: '00 S4, '97 A4 2.8, '96 A4 2.8, '86 GT Coupe
