85TurboMKII my car usually runs between 180F and 195F with the turbo. 180 around town and creeps up to 195 around 75-80 and stays there. I would not keep driving if it went any higher. I do have an aftermarket temp guage in my car too. stocker went defunct and damn is the stocker inaccuratedefinatly worth the 35 bucks for the autometer one

I mounted my autometer,boost, and A/F guages above my single din radio. they aren't fastened in yet just kind stuck in there but they dont fall out or move any, and it adds to the shadyness of the whole turbo. on the waterneck of the Termo housing there is an allen bolt, I removed the allen bolt and the adapter that came with the autometer temp guage screws in there perfectly. I am using the electric temp guage and it works well.
