Sounds fine to me... oil temps are fine till about 220... if you're regularly over 220, then think about an oil cooler, but even in 90deg+ weather at an autocross, I didn't really break 220.

Oh, and shouldn't your boost hit around 14psi? Stock WRXs should hit 14psi in 3rd and 4th gear... like if you're accelerating on the freeway.

Or is the auto different than the manual as far as boost?
