I can see how the CSF would help prevent overheating on a track day but what I'm after is getting my cruising temps. down to the 85-90 C area. Wondering if the CSF will help with that or if something like the MHD flash tune mentioned earlier would be necessary to lower cruising temps.
I think the ECU is going to tell the car to get to whatever it considers to be the appropriate temperature. I think the benefit of a better radiator would be the water pump would have to work less and therefore may last longer.
