Yea, driving along, 1/4 (m) sometimes lower, depends on the temps really....
Then when parking up after a drive gets no higher than in between R & O (nearly 3/4) and the fan is in and it brings it back down to 1/4 mark again.

With the pro alloy intercooler 1/4 when driving, but if I stop at a red light and its a hot day it will shoot up to right under the red and then it takes 10 minuts of driving to cool it down again. Fans can't get it cold enough to cut the fans off so they are always running. I'm using a 4x4 cossie temp switch and a 82 degree thermostat.

Mine using a standard ic sits at a 1/4 if driving normaly it raises to about 3/4 when stuck in traffic though. But as with all my cars i run the fan on a switch so as soon as i come to a stop albeit at a set of traffic lights even i just wack the fan on
