^^ Exactly. The only time you really need to worry about temperature is if the oil reaches the point where it starts coking. That's why everyone always tells you to let the car run a minute or two before shutting it off after running the motor really hard. If the turbo is hot from a beating and you let that oil just sit in there, it can coke up and fuck your nice new turbo. An oil cooler is a nice tough as well...but I'd say a pressure gauge is an even better idea.
