Yeah...1200 F (600'C) is damn to low for the highest EGT :aigo:
My sensor is located near the Y pipe on the twins.And the highest temp.
I've seen is 1330 F (700'C)...

I meant that you should have seen higher water temps. than 195F...
Specially during the summer where ambient temps are quite high.

Why?

My cooling system works ;)

The hottest I've seen was 200f in traffic in summer with the air con on high.

Glad to hear that :sarcasm:
Can you describe what kind of upgrade have you done to your cooling
system?

Yep but an engine is an engine is an engine ;)

3.0L will generate xxx heat at xxx power output.

The frontal area of the Mk3 is more of a factor in the cooling than which engine is in there be it 7M or 2J.

Claou I think runs the 2J O2W oil cooler setup so that alone would be raising his base temps if the rest of the cooling system is marginal.
