With the "Version 2" PPK my running temps have consiistently dropped by about the same amount under normal driving conditions. If I drive aggressively, the temp will go higher of course, I'm just talkin averge oil temp.
Actually, having driven the car more now, the temp is about the same as it used to be on the highway. Around town it runs a few degrees hotter, and yes, that could be easily explained by the increased 'grin factor' of me playing with the extra power.
