Never tune to a temp, every temp gun and engine are different just tune for performance and smoke. We've had this discussion several time and 1 day we put it to the test and temped an engine with 4 different temp guns and there was over a 20 deg c difference which is huge to say the least. as long as your getting good performance and still making a reasonable amount of smoke your fine
