good to hear it fits with 3"left. very good.
what you are doing is common with TURBO kits,   a huge RAD.
A typical turbo does 2x HP increase and 2x more heat.  6psi boost? IIRC.
a turbo guy would know what to do and 250F  coolant temps are NO GOOD.
I wish lots of luck and success in your project,  
if your car was Chevy the PCM would start dropping off cylinders that hot... (created in the first Corvettes with this)
they cut injection to do that.magic. on 1 cylinder then more, if need be.
pure genius that ....

happy  trails ! and Cheers.

 It'll take couple of weeks to get the radiator.  While I wait I will continue to review and test.

I am going to change from the 2 10" fans (1750CFM) to a single 16" fan (3000CFM) to see if it makes any difference in the overall cooling.

What could it hurt..  If the 16" provides improvement I will use the 2 10" fans for another project to build a cooling system and water collection from my 80 gal air compressor so stuff will get used.

What could it hurt?  Nothing at this point..  I may learn even more.
