Ap2 and Temp Gauge
For those with a AP2, on your temp gauge, how many bars are you showing when fully warm?
Back in May my car showed 7 bars consistently and now it shows 8. Its probably not a big deal?!

..... ive heard 1 extra bar is a HUGE deal as it comes on only when the car is running VERY hot.
However IDK how many bars it should start w/ cause I run AEM w/ no temp guage.

Engine shouldn't run over 200 IMO.
I'm turbo and I hit 210 on a hot day running hard.
I over heated only 1 time on the way to vegas playing with an M3 on long uphill pulls in top gear.
