The external on the coil is very clean.
Actual ambient temperature at the time of these readings this evening (82F) At normal Idle (Low 34) (High 195). At 1500 rpms (Low 25) (High 205). It will cool down to 45F while driving so it is definitely better, but not quite there. Thanks

Based on a chart in the service manual, at 1500 rpm, the high side pressure should be closer to 300 PSI while the low side pressure is fine:
