Different than my experience. While it's unusual to hit 220 right away, at 5pm when it's 106 out and I'm driving home from work, it does happen. That's when the torque cut kicks in. I only live 7 miles from work but it's not freeway travel and it is in traffic. I also have the FI cooler.

One thing that may be impacting yours is the fact that you've got three extra quarts of oil flowing around due to your oil pan upgrade.

yeah, i thought 'bout that afterwards...the extra monies spent on the deeper pan and the under shroud, vented, that master ryan loved may have indeed made the 10/15 degree diff.---i'm just guessing it was a lil' under 8 large...

Hey guys sorry I haven't been on the forum in a while. I'm in Puerto Rico! Anyways, oil temps were barely 220 because I was at about 6000 ft elevation in traffic climbing up Mt Charleston. Outside temps were around 95 degrees. So yes I think the f.I. oil cooler does an excellent job at keeping temps down. On top of that I was doing flybys at 9000 ft elevation as you can see in my exhaust video. Temps never passed 220 degrees. I hope this answers you're questions.
