open radiators ?
and let the engines warm up after engine start but before start the plane itself ?!

After takeoff, reduce throttle to 80%, watch the turbo boost gauge on the right: If it is 0 or below zero, your engine will remain cool. If it is constantly at max boost level, your engine will overheat very quickly...
