Hmmm? Well for reference it takes 7min in the winter & ~3 in the summer to get to operating temp. Are you saying it should happen even faster?

Another idea might be those coolant additives that racers use to keep their temps in check....something like Hyper Lube Super Coolant or Redline Water Wetter Super Coolant???
