You should have fairly accurate readings if your sensor on the oil cooler is on the "Hot" side (shown where the red arrow enters the cooler on this diagram):http://www.scienceofspeed.com/products/engine_performance_products/NSX/ScienceofSpeed/oil_cooler/If your sensor is on the opposite side, then it's not very helpful. An easy fix would be to swap the lines so you're measuring the temps pre-cooler.Measuring the temps in the oil filter sandwhich plate should also be a fairly accurate reading if you're reading the oil on the outside of the sandwhich plate which comes directly from the oil pan (the red lines on that SOS link).Yes when I said "sump" I meant the oil pan. Measuring at the accusump would be even more useless since the valve opens and closes.
