Yup you do, Your a "CARB state", California has special status, its sets it's own standards, other states can choose between weak Fed standards and tough CA standards. PA and others follow CA. Lucky us lucky you. Unfortunately with the motor totally re-tuned for the blower, I barrrrrely squeaked by ...at idle no less!?!
A water to oil cooler makes them (the fluids) the same temp and that is 220-210, O.K. Why does my oil appear to be 188f. If you read my methodology & you get the logic, I think it's pretty sound. If you got a better method, let me know. Punch holes in mine. I don't care as long as the the numbers add up.
Funny thing though, I suppose if I already had a 160 thermostat (or 140 (?)), oil at 188f might be just about right and we could all go home. (Gotta get a good read on the coolant temp I guess.)

BTWx2. Porsche has "a' hole in the thermostat, quaint. We just kept drilling till it worked right. 3 or 4 holes I think was the magic number. Did take longer to warm up though.
