Trans Temp?

I installed a set of Autometer Phantom gauges and went out for a drive with my Bully Dog Power Pup set on Extreme for about 20 minutes. Trans Temp never got over 160. Does this sound about right or is it a little low? I was bagging on it to see what the Pyro would go up to also, peeked at about 1200 in short bursts. Boost gauge is also a lot nicer to read then stocker. Chime in if you know what temp that trans should be running at and thanks in advance.

My engine is stock and the trans gets to 165 and stays there unless it's very hot outside or I'm towing a 6000* trailer. Sounds like yours is about right. I would think revving the engine would keep the tranny cooler than lugging the engine.
