270!?

But thanks for posting that you did the test


No way on electrical tape. I Would rather know when my oil temps are reaching too high and I Should Stop or cruise in higher gear.

I still don't understand why some of you guys are saying oil coolers are bought "for the sake of Modding." I'm pretty sure its for the sake of protection. I would Like to see proof that running your engine at 220-240 is better than 190-210.
