Default Oil operating Temp

Had a quick search and it seems there is a few deferentiating opinions on this, what is concidered a good healthy operating tempterature for oil in the scoob, the scooby in question is a blob wrx running vf35 with supporting mods to make 300+, oil temp usually sits about 90 but some people say this is too high for it. its been seen to go up to 105. is it worth fitting an oil cooler or are those tempertures as expected in reality?

90 sounds right mate, if it only goes upto 105 in traffic or when thrashing and then comes down when driving normally, then there's no need for an oil cooler.
