Default Gearbox temperatures

Hi, i have searched some around, but cant find anything regarding how hot the gearboxes are when racing.

Have anyone measured the gearbox temperature?

Default S2 gearbox - with gauge

Last year I was running 260 degrees up to 295... (no cooler at all, but twice yearly fluid changes.

Did a spendy rebuild this year and had a large cooler and pump installed. The fan pulls from the tirewell inside the cabin and pushed through a 8x8? radiator below the fan
The pump is continuous not temp activated.
Temps are 230 tops now

Cabin is now hot as hell, and will put a fresh air duct on next
