At the end of my last final, temp check was 80degC which i believe is too cold?? Its already producing ridiculous power and I really dont feel the need to lean it anymore.

Does anyone know what factors contribute to engine temp being cold apart from the obvious??? And also what the point of turbo heads are??

I have a P5X head and think it will fit straight on the GO, is there something to gain by this??

Thanks in advance....
Id tune for performance regardless of temp , then limit throttle servo EPA to reduce power.. OR ! use a smaller carb restrictor . Dont run it cold it will wear the engine..
