Adjust timing, and maybe back down the start wheel. also where is your pryo at is it 3/4 to one side right smack dab in the middle or behind the turbo.

Unburnt fuel eguals more heat, tune it better and have it burn all the fuel so it will run cooler. How big of injectors do you have? also because if you dont have the proper timing, air, those injectors are just dumping fuel... Hope they are no more than 90 horse.

360 is way too high of a pop pressure 260 is prob what there set at as for running cooler you need to tune your afc and not have it set as loose as it can.
