Average temp will vary for every Picco Boost out there, Fuel, Plug, Altitude, Tune on the engine, Me Personally don't even temp engines as i tune on Smoke, sound, feel on the trigger finger. Even what brand car you run it in will vary the temp. If it runs great on the track and say after a 40+min AMain and comes back up the shoot and drops to a perfect idle to me the temp reading is spot on... I see so many people at the races coming in and tuning a engine with a temp gun and hearing "it should run at such and such a temp"...

If i was to give an Average temp i would say 100 to 120 Degree Celsius...

Our little Picco Boost is on its way to 25ltrs and with a new rod @ 20ltr mark still has incredible pop on the flywheel, I like to pull apart the engine every 10 or so liters and just clean the excess carbon off and give the internals the once over....
