Man that's hot. Mine averages 140-150 under daily driving. Hard to believe a thermal dispersant coating on the oil pan makes that much of a difference.

212F is actually perferred because it evaporates any moisture out of the oil

With my intermitent rough idle it drops down near zero sometimes! I set it to 0psi warning for now.
