It's because it's a 1320 unit on a 3.6L V6. They're spinning the crap out of it to make any kind of boost but that means a ton of heat and the heat exchanger can't be too big because of the hood clearance but the heat exchanger needs to be big to disappate the heat properly and...


It's all fitment issues. If the engine sat lower and we could get, say, a 1.7L or a 1.9L (that would be silly power on a V6) super on top, it would be different. More boost, less heat.
