      I got the kit about a year ago! Kevin was great on my order turn around time maybe 2 months! Called every time I texted him about questions! I have no complaints.. I guess its about the attitude that you approach him with, pushy people usually get pushed back to the end of the line!! I think!!

                      Kinda of.

                      Abnormally high oil temps can be indicative of excessive bottom-end friction (main bearings in the case of S14s), IIRC. Also, abnormally low coolant temps can be indicative an incorrect thermostat. Not saying that's the case here though.
