Also note that the ECU will start to pull timing as early as 230F. There's really no need to worry about your oil being too cold in California.

This was with no cooler. Im interested in a 19 as it seems like the smallest i can find that comes with a kit w/out building or retrofitting anything..
This morninf was 65degrees, ran about 195 and not over 200 for a 30 minute commute.
