Coolant Temp

Hi there everyone.
So I was just checking out my Coolant Temp and I just want to make sure that it's normal.
The temp is 207F with the AC on. And 194 without. Oh yeah it's a Cobalt SS / SC.
Let me know thanks.

Normally, my car will run at 185-187 on the highway or moving, 194-210 idling in traffic, and 190-200 with ac on. The numbers you posted are perfectly normal, no irregularities.

I have a question than, since I was just informed about me being an idiot. Since the H/e doesnt affect the coolant temps, if i remember correctly it affects the IAT temps??
How would I know if its working right If i dont have a scan gauge?

^^ Know what isnt working right?

The heat exchanger pump is the thing that fails.. you can check this by checking the cap of the filler neck...

Under what conditions does this happen?

I've seen mine go as high as 224 in rush hour traffic going super slow.

Mine usually doesnt go over 200, if it does, I make sure the A/C is on and it comes back down. If I am sitting still at a light, with AC on, it wont go over 190 or 192, cruising, 180 solid. It is as low at 175 sometimes.

what I mean is: I got the H/E as a Cooling mod for when I get the OTTP1 kit. Right now im GMS2 with a 2.9 and injen intake... Since the H/E is a Cooling mod, is there any way to tell if its doing its job?

to see the temps on the supercharger side. i.e. iat temps. you will have to get a scan gauge like the interceptor. there is really no other way to check it
