Those numbers soound about right. Keep an eye on the gauges and watch for trends. They should not get much hotter unless you tow in the heat of the day.

I'm getting EOT in the morning around 199* and anywhere from 210-215* in the afternoon. Is this normal???? :dunno


Those sound about like mine, but mine are a hair lower. I can push it up pretty easy, depends on how hard the truck is working. The more boost being sustained, higher the temp.

The cooler is very effective, I don't remeber what the redline is with oil temp. You won't get close from what I've been told on another site.

Oh, and you don't want to really lay into the throttle until your oil is at 150 degrees. Cooler than that the PCM goes into the"cold" fuel map and advances timing and such to compensate. I don't watch the engine temp gauge in the winter, I watch the streaming data from my EVO! :sweet Helps at the track too, I don't want cold oil when racing!
