The car actually isnt that bad at speed. It seems louder at slow speeds. you can hear the turbo spool pretty well now too.
I recon I have an idea on my heat issues too. The 190E radiator I ordered from ebay arrived as a round bar and fin radiator rather than a flat bar and fin radiator. I imagine much cheaper to make but not as efficient as flat bar and fin and its not really up to the job of keeping the engine properly cooled. The pic on ebay was of a flat bar radiator as it happens.
I might try again and get a descent OEM radiator and make sure Its a flat bar and fin version. Aluminium custom made would be £300+. Thought I had finished this car...
Cheers
Stot
