Seen 205 degree engine coolant temp. Need to know if thats bad...
So I was driving home from work, I had been driving just enough to get up to typical operating temps and I was messing with my info button just looking at all the information and I seen 205 constant at 40 mph. I have never seen it this high so I increased speed and it went down to around 194-196, I did not monitor it the rest of the drive(roughly 35 minutes from when I noticed)but I would like to get some feed back....mind you it was like 88 degrees out today in Michigan. Thanks for any and all feedback.

My car is stock for with the exception of the ZZP 3" CAI, Nothing has been taken off or removed in any manner other than the factory air intake. I was going to make a seperate thread but since I'm stock I was thinking of getting a S3 H/E dual end pass + opt b on factory set up, would this help efficiency of the over all engine(I know Coolant temps differ from IAT2)was just an idea also can meth be ran with those cooling mods? I do plan on upgrading full exhaust and stage kit in the future just was curious about getting all the cooling mods before hand.
