we recently gathered some data from a 2000 986S. This engine was running 246F oil temps with the coolant temp at 210, the gauge only said the engine was running a 190F coolant temp.

Adding a low temp thermostat was one of the ways I added the .5 MPH my Wife needed to set a land Speed Record in my 996, actually she broke 4 in one weekend!
