    It depends. My car will reach normal coolant temp and the oil temp will read between 150F -175F.

    Once I get the boost flowing, I can sit in the 190F-220F range.

    I guess the max oil temp would be best to stay under 230F.

    Agreed. It varies. I know on my car, once it hits 175 degrees, I feel it's warm 'enough'. My car normally doesn't go over 200 degrees - it usually stays at 190.
