Polo Radiator...Any issues?

I`ve just had a Redtop built to 220bhp+ spec and currently have a brand new Polo radiator fitted but after giving it some beans it boils up.(4 laps rounds Cadwell)

If you drive steady it will hold temp between 78-82 deg with no stat in.

Im guessing it not the rads fault but has anyone got one fitted with similar bhp and had/having same issues?

Have you blanked off all around the rad so all the air goes through the radiator?
Bonnet vents to let the heat out?

This rad would do nicely Caterham Radtec Racing Radiator on eBay (end time 20-Apr-11 15:13:00 BST)

I run a 4 core pace products caterham rad on my 2L turbo engine and that keeps the temps under controll
