Did a 30mins hot run at 3pm just now with lots of 2nd & 3rd gear high rev along a very twisty road.......oil temp was 110deg & not going any higher......seems very good for 2moro's track day........
Will update when I get back.....

Do you have an upgraded oil cooler? 110 for 30mins of spirited driving at 3pm seems good. It just take a few sprints for my car to touch 120 in the hot afternoon but so far, it seems to max out at 120.

Any 335 modded will exceed 120 anytime......you haven't push your car hard enuf.....
Total of 20 laps at Sepang......5 laps then rest for 10 mins.
Oil Temp still hit 130 but much later at 4th lap. JB3 was running at map 7.
Once we slow down the car, the oil temp drops very fast back to 105....
