When I had a Intelitronix water gauge, it read within 1 degree of the PFC, from low to high. My new Auto Meter reads about 10 low at the low end, correct around 180F, and about 3 low above 180F.

I have a R1 with M2 ungrade radiator, M2 intake, and N-Tech mini battery. I also removed the plastic inserts in the car nose and have metal shielding to block off the large radiator area side openeings. This all helps cooling.

Don't have an oil temp gauge, but have thermal strips on the oil
system. High of 225F coming out of the engine with 200F at the oil filter. This is now in Houston summer stop and go driving. It
was lower in the spring time.

I'll see 93 C on the PFC as a normal operating temp. after 15 minutes of normal driving. The fans will bring it down to 90 C. My Cyberdynne digital (probe at the air chamber in the waterpump upper housing...not ideal) will register 10 degrees (F) lower. So, rather then showing 190s F it will show 180s F.
