no probs with mine feeling hot ... as I usually drive with the windows down.

My issue with driving at nite is all the goofs flashing their headlights at me cuz they think my driving lights are high beams.

If it's that hot out I roll up my windows and put the ac on low and recirculate. Keep the passenger vents closed with the other 2 facing you. Doesn't waste as much fuel as cranking the ac.


I get that from others also with the high beams. I wonder if they were hid lights, they'd really have something to complain ablout...

Probably most of the heat your feeling is coming from the shifter tunnel area. The stock cats are mounted up in that area just below the shifter, and the heat is channeled into that well. Several people have reported that high flow cats or relocating the stock cats solve the heat build up.
