depends on the oil your using
mineral based semi oils break down at lower temps than fully synth oil

on mine before i fitted the oil cooler temps on general driving temps ranged up to 95c
but soon as you hooned it or track abuse i did see close to 140c on a semi synth oil

this is the point i decided i needed an oil cooler to which i dont see over 90c now
