82-88C on water temp, and anywhere from 20-50C on the air temp(50 being heat soaked) due to the weather being colder.

You don't list any of your mods, so there's not much to compare. Your's may be higher because you have a stock cooling system ?????

^For track use I use about 20-30% coolant, but for the street I would use the normal 50/50. You being in FLA 20/80 or 30/70 would be fine since it doesn't get that cold.

You aren't going to really see much of a temp change just from street driving. If it's overheating on the street you have problems. Also yours is probably hitting 89 because of what the fans are set to come on at in your PFC, which is not anywhere near a problem.
