Default Oil temp ? Water temp? Whats average for you guys?

I got my Omori Oil Temp and Water Temp gauges hooked up yesterday.......My Oil Temp stays right at 90 degrees (celsius) and my water temp stays right at 100 degrees (celsius). I was wondering if this is average for an ITR motor????? Just wanted to make sure my cooling system was effecient.

I did the conversion for celsius to fahrenheit.....my water temp is at 212 degrees fahrenheit....and oil temp is at 194 degrees fahrenheit...........maybe this will help.

just installed Greddy gauges in my 01 ITR (78K miles). My average oil temp is about 95 degrees C around town, and ~100 degrees on the highway. I have seen as high as 105 C though. Not sure about water temp (factory gauge suxorz)...

Oil pressure seems to average around 5 KG per CC2

coolant temp ranges from the low 190s to 215F. Im using a fluidyne radiator. At idle after the warm up phase, it sits around 212. Typically while street driving is in the 190s. Ive never had the chance to monitor it on the track.

I dont have an oil temp gauge.

Water: 70 C°
Oil: 85 C° (can go up to 160° on track, with oil cooler installed up to 135-140 C°)

What does water wetter raise your boiling point too? Honda coolant raises it to 264F.

Anywhere from 190 F to 195 F for water temp using the stock radiator on my car, and around 175 to 180 F on an ITR running a C&R radiator with the fan constant on.

I don't have a water temp gauge, but my oil temp has never exceeded 220F.
