Your best bet would be to replace your coolant with whats called "engine ice" do a search on ebay or on google and itll show what im talking about.
Another thing you could do is either buy or make some fins that stick out from your radiator at a 45 degree angle. It forces more air to do through the radiator which cools it more.
You also might be running lean having the K&N air filter on if you didnt rejet. Do a plug chop to find out if thats the prob.

Water wetter is good stuff too. I have it in mine. Not sure how it works w/o becuase i never ran it w/o. Its made by redline in a pink bottle. I noticed a very good effect on my v-8 s-10, so im sure it will help on the quad as well.

Has anybody ran an oil cooler on a water cooled machine? Oil coolers are generally pretty easy to install ........
