Default I'm not convinced that my KE Laser isn't running too hot?!?

I've measured over 100 degrees on the top radiator hose, on a 30ish degree day.... I don't know what would happen on a 40 degree day!

Its running a large 52mm thick alloy radiator, with a modified suzuki swift fan, also has a high flow thermostat.

I'm wondering if the intercooler, and aircon fans are restricting flow too much, plus the AC condensor, if maybe the thicker radiator is just too thick, and/or the high flow thermostat is flowing coolant too fast...

OR! if there's something else I should consider... or maybe the temperatures are fine...
