Best way is to get a ScanGauge II which will give real water temps. The standard MINI gauge does not read the full range anyway. Just normal and hot. The SGII gives the actual temp of the water. There are others but the SGII is what I like.
If you want oil temp you need an after market sensor and gauge.
