I tried a few runs at 194 and the oil hit up to 216 at the end of the run. The car is way quiker at 175 oil temp (80 c).
I use royal purple 5 W 30 race oil.

Ya that makes sense to me man, I noticed my Z "felt" more on point when the temps were lower, so I am super excited to try it out when I get home.
