Dont go just by that though, its more important to go by smoke/performance than anything. For me personally, due to altitude, humidity and temperature, my settings never end up very close to the factory reccomended settings.

Chris,
It depends, is there alot of oil on the outside of your engine?? If there is then yes you will get a small amount of smoke(just a wisp) But anymore smoke or no oil on your engine does mean its pretty HOT!! You might want to fatten up the tune, more fuel means cooler temps, more lubricant and sometimes more power.. You really dont need the temp gun if you know about he water droplett test(when you put just a drop of water on the glow plug area and it pops and sizzles then too hot) but it is best to have a temp gun in your tool box. Dont try to tune only for temp, but use it as a guide. Tune for power and temp. it wouldn't hurt to have an [link=http://www.rchardware.com/]N-Tune Tuning Dial Found Here![/link]
Anyway good luck and have fun!!
