I don't have engine cooling issues unless it's a 90F+ open track day and I'm doing >25min sessions. Are you talking about tracking or driving around town?

Are you sure MHD is actually running the pump faster than stock when the car is hot, vs just kicking in higher water pump speeds as the car is heating up? If that later, that would just buy an extra lap or two by keeping the car a little cooler in the beginning of a track session.
All I know is that if I set it to stock, my water temperatures are much higher everywhere even with just normal driving, my coolant temp will be in the 100c range.

If I use MHDs "track" setting it keeps the coolant at 82c across the board all the time, hense keeping my oil ALOT cooler.
