I always shoot for a 90 kt climb and with the Power Flow I can usually get much faster (and cooler) while maintaining at least 500fpm C which is an IFR concern C but nothing but a round number to shoot for VFR. 90-110 kt climbs also increase forward field of view which is already excellent over the nose of a Tiger.
During a full throttle C full rich 90 kt climb on a hot day I might see 450 deg F CHT (EDM-70) until right around 5 C000' DA. I never patched the exhaust hole in my stock cowl C and I have Vogt baffles. Interestingly C after installing the Power Flow short stack my oil temps went up a consistent 15 deg on the EDM-700 which other people have reported too.

My oil temps with half the inlet area of a stock cowling, with a powerflow, are 185-192 consistently, regardless of OAT.
