I was wondering about this topic as I read the last one...
With so many people talking tuning issues, the heat could easily be tune related (I'm sure that was mentioned in here).
Either way, sounds like you've got some nice plans in the pipeline 8)
When results speak for themselves - don't interrupt.

Yes, this whole topic should be linked to the topic (unfortunately also started by me) entitled "Whoops!!".
UK since return: Standard NC2 (horrid), C200K, ND2 BBR, NC2 BBR200 (loved it), NC BBR300 (better than BARMY), V-Special, turbo NB8B (my 84th car)

I went the route of make myself a new air guide for the front of the car. Also made of coreflute like your diversion plate, better than the factory piece in my eyes as the sides seal up.

I have notice my AC gets colder alot faster than it used to so it must be doing something :mrgreen:

This was done in conjunction with a new ASI 40mm alum radiator
