I don't know if it helps or know if my car is my normal. I have the stock radiator and all, on hot days it gets to maybe 210 max, but thats on a 90 some degree day, otherwise on a 70-80 degree day around 180,190

*edit* hot days meaning I'm from Wisconsin, I know 90 degrees isn't all that hot though

Those temps are fine. If you see anything past 230F, then start being concerned.
