I have had the vehicle up to 107*C oil temps without a loss in power. The majority of our dyno runs were performed between 85*C and 100*C, as viewed on the live data on pro ecu.

I also have heard that Perrin had seen a power loss at higher oil temps, but I do not know at what temp they started seeing their power loss at.
