Some of the guys that use the T---- software and geared right for it said there motor temp's went down as much as 25*.......Some of them geared back up and there was some smoke.
I've been running dirt so the motor's not getting hot even in stock. If you over gear it it just bogs down and won't go. There hasn't been a need to crank things up too much so I'm only running 35 degrees of timing in CHEAT with the RPM set to 4000.

You can tune the bottom end to the track by turning up the start power. Low is pretty smooth off the bottom and high can be a bit much for dirt. i'd probably just crank it up and leave it there for onroad.
