MAF tubes
When I pulled out the stock tube on driver side it had like a male part underneath. What is that for? Also, the oil temp is good to what degree before concern. I hit 235F in 80 degree temp yesterday in traffic and Florida isn't even hot yet

300F but don't worry, your Z will start taking corrective action long before you reach 280F to protect the engine.

That may be true, but obviously something's wrong. It shouldn't be running that hot. For me, even on days in the low to mid 80's, I'll rarely get over 205 degrees under normal driving. Did you remove the tube or replace it? What happened?

230f
Recently changed to silicone MAF tubes and added a Z-speed undershield. It has new penn 5W30 platinum oil in the motor. I think I am going to change some of the other fluids manual and diff since it has been 58k miles. does running the air make a difference?
