The coolant needs to be at >80C for that. Anything below that for other than warmup is not what the calibration is looking for. That doesn’t mean it won’t run but it defeats the whole point of Closed Loop operation.
Well I guess I should expect a recall notice then.

The car feels MUCH stronger at 170 degrees.

I am no engineer, but it has behaved that way for 20 years, and I am good with it.

I won't tell GM, so let's keep it a secret.
