I have never seen my oil temp get over 220F even under very spirited driving in 110F weather. Under what conditions are you able to achieve such high temps?

I hit 240F easily on a run for autocross. Any time I run I get that temp for a bit and it settles down after the run

At VIR and Summit Point raceways, even in 97' temps, I have never seen anything over 210, and normally the car runs at 200-205'. Now that I have changed my oil from TWS, I am seeing 10' less. My first thought is that if you are seeing over 220' on the track, then something minor is wrong. Of course I could be missing some variable. . |

Do you define "hard" as shifting every gear at 8K?

Do you have an estimate of what the temperature of the air is going into your engine (after the supercharger)? Doesn't seem like the supercharged car should be in the same conversation as the non. Guessing inlet temperature of 150 F +, or at least air temperatures that the non supercharged group could ever see even if driving in Death Valley?

Interestingly my car runs cooler than it ever did stock since I went supercharged, it does however get to 2 o'clock mark pretty easily in 25 deg c on all day sprint sessions , the Setrab cooler seems to add around a liter in capacity. It's a very nice solution, ess should sell it as just a oil cooler upgrade to general public...it's very thick and recovery times are awesome!!

Oil should be run in a range. Too cool and you allow water moisture to build up in the oil. Minimum should be 212 F. Redline states their oil is good to 300 F. I shoot for 220-260.

My car has never run that hot except on the track, and maybe 215, and this with ambient temperature of 95'. Tooling around town, If I get to 200 that is the exception. Of course, I do not use 10W60. I use 15W50 and have for almost eight years. |
