Having the oil temp trigger reset to 285F resulted in never running into the tune cutting back on commanded throttle. Oil temp on the factory gauge remained at the same normal level of just over 270F indicated.

So in your situation, what do you think would be the better fix out of these two examples?
1) Increase the thermal safety limit so that the ECU can't limit the power output of the engine when the oil reaches the original temperature setpoint,
or
2) Install an oil cooler so that the oil temperature doesn't reach the original thermal limit in the first place.
