Am I worrying needlessly about engine temp?

A few points first. My perfect 2000 S with 33k blew up 10 years ago. Am still scarred. Baffling to my family, I bought a 2000 2.7 this year. Love this car. But worry as I sit in the horrid Bay Area traffic and watch the gauge rise into the 0 of the 180. Took it to Gavin’s Porsche in Oakland (most honest mechanic I’ve ever worked with). Checked out the cooling system and fans, all good. Just wondering tho, while I don’t track this car, could I beef up the cooling system by adding a lower temp thermostat and maybe a 3.2 S oil cooler?
