oil and water temps
recently boosted my 95 LS
the turbo is water and oil cooled
im running the S300 and have an oil temp gauge
i havnt installed my oil cooler not sure if its necessary. i dont think the civic half rad is up to the task, it is a fluidyne. i have a 2240 cfm fan. and 172 deg thermostat. water temps go up to 202F on warm days(80F) that seems a little high to me maybe im being paranoid. hondata sets the CEL at 216F 14 deg dosnt seem like much. stock fan switch is 199 deg. Now oil temps are up about 180-190 cruising on warm day 60-70mph(same conditions for coolant temps) when driving aggressively oil temps will hit 210, im pretty sure i need to install my oil cooler. Should i be concerned with the water temps? thanks for any help

yeah your water temp seems alittle high...on 90 degree days cruising on the highway i am running about 180-184 although i am also N/A...try putting a differant thermostat in...one that opens alittle sooner...as for your oil tempature...i dont know about that..i dont have that gauge to give u an average on that...
