I believe the hottest day I've ran mine was in the mid 80's...my oil temp never went above 220 and that was driving the hell out of it for about an hour and a half. Of course it wasn't a constant boost fest but it was a good amount.

This was not on a track but on the highway!!!

Oh wow that's very surprising. I definitely getting one installed as soon as my warranty is up then, better get started on saving.

Just don't make the mistake I made and buy it at the installers shop (buy it online). Taxes killed me...about 800-900$ in taxes. Otherwise they are a very good, inexpensive turbo. I paid about $8000 for the whole kit....that's with a boost controller, meth injection( they threw that in for buying the boost controller), ball bearing upgrade & ceramic coated.
