Default request: pic of normal operating temp?

can someone post a pic of the normal operating temp on there guage. i bought the car with a mugen thermostat and its winter time so i switched it out for a oem one so i dont know what the normal temp is, just wanna make sure im not running too hot, because when i installed it yesterday and test drove it, it bogged in 2nd and 3rd gear and backfired but then seemed fine. and the temp needle gets to the small line right before the middle.

Norm is 1 to 2 bars below(to the right) the halfway mark. Yours looks good.

To the left of the half-way mark.


Mine is the tick right before the half mark and doesnt move....hot or cold outside....doesnt matter.
