Car is not in limp mode, so performance should be exactly the same. You got some empirical data here? Besides the feel good butt dyno
For a street car if you are < 230 in the hot you are fine. Folks who track there cars have different thermal requirements and its a good investment.
100 deg, AC on, and my 2010 never goes above 225. I see temps creep up 5deg during stop and go while the HW seems to be steady at 220 in the very warm.
< 80 deg and normal temps are 210-215F.
I run 5/30 Pennzoil Ultra, FWIW.
