Rob - on the motorway it goes up to just below the red block at the top, its a brand new 82c stat then if i park up and sit for 2-3mins the fans bring the temps back down! Also if i boot it the temps shoot up and then i have to cruise around at 50mph to bring em down again, or sit with fans on. Any more than 70/75mph at cruise at the creep up.
Since ive turbo'd the car the fuelling has always been an issue (if not just in my head) but the beiges/195 chip doesnt work properly and the car used to hesistate at cruise. Increasing the fuel pressure has cured the buthesitation, im on 3bar now at idle... All this is just more reason for me to look at MS, so i can monitor and adjust things accordingly!
You definitely need to get an afr gauge mate 100% before you fit megasquirt. This is what i use:

And this one is being bid up at the moment so could be a bargain!

I guess you could be running very lean on cruise which could cause high temps, but my gauge sits just below red @90deg which isn't overheating.
I'll drop you a PM later Roger
