Default frs newbie

I have just got my first RS.
I did a part ex/deal with my evo 6 on the weekend for her, must say i'm quite impressed as i've never driven one before or even been out in one.



She's had a few bits done to her so has good power, just need to get used to it and the fwd torque steer.

Few questions about the car if anyone can help.

On the front bumper both of my side vents can be pushed inwards to the front of them and its as if there's clips missing, are they meant to be loose or is there some missing fitment?

I've also got a ggr/spa oil pressure and water temp gauge. What kind of oil pressure should i be seeing at idle and when driving etc?
the water temp i've seen go right up to 120 degree's is this right? there's a light on the gauge that starts flashing when it goes over 100degree's too, it only gets this hot in traffic, when driving normally around 80-90 degrees. (i have got a alloy radiator fitted too)

Anybody know how to use a blitz sbc boost controller or know of any online instructions in english?

There's some dried up pink fluid round by the thermostat housing, don't know if this has been fixed or not as haven't seen it leaking and i'm not loosing water, what is the procedure on fixing these as i've read its a common problem?

Also is it safe to run the frs without a dump valve, its had a bluefin remap would it run any different if i removed it? I have a turbosmart adjustable half recirc-half atmos d/v fitted, but i'd rather have just the chatter.

Thanks.
Ant.
