Right now, I can reach 120 if it's about 65 F or so outside. The past few days, outside temp's been around 90 F during the day, so I have hit 140 fairly easily.

However, my engine has no knock sensor, and I am somewhat afraid to push my engine to the point where pre-ignition could take hold. Besides, that's about at the upper temperature where they test these production models before the models get released for sale to the general public. So... Not much more than 140 F.
