Water.....my fan cuts in at 97 degrees
Oil..........temps cruise at 80 odd, 95 driving properly, I'd get worried at 110
Pressure..7 bar at start up, runs hot at 6 bar and idles hot at a touch over 2 bar.

Bug WRX with TD05 18G and mods :)

04 sti running circa 370bhp , depends on what oil you use etc for pressure, my average readings are:

Oil temp - 80-90 degrees normal, upto 100 on hard driving
oil pressure - 6-7 bar cold start, down to 2.2 bar on hot idle
not too sure about water temp

thanks guys

my classic with a 2.5 ran very similar as above, 400bhp

even driven failry hard, oil temp never above 95

my prosport boost gauge, failed after 2 weeks of fitting, probably due to loose wire/poor connection im assuming tho

Mine is almost identical, except that it ticks over hot at 3bar. It's a forged engine too, so pretty pleased with that.

It runs at 83 degrees water, 90 degrees oil and 6 bar hot oil pressure.

Did you not get a boost gauge? Or do you already have one?

Already have a boost gauge on the a pillar going to put these gauges in the dash pod
