This comes down to Water and Oil along with Ambient Temperature changes if the question is heat.
Your Oil Cooler and Coolant controls the temperatures of your vehicle far more - they are WAY hotter then intake air temps and ambient temps.
250F OIL
225F Water
*on average give or take a few*
Those are the main causes of engine heat.
I run colder water temps in my tune and therefore my oil temperature is reduced, you could consider that to help aid in cooling everything down.
I run 195F water now and reduced my oil as much as 30 degrees, depending.
I also run 40W oil in the summer but I never burned oil on 30W. It could also depend on what oil your using in general. For example - Oils like Mobil 1 burns/shears a lot more then comparable oils.

I tried M1 0W40, Castrol 0W40 and now twinpower 5W30 all with the same result. Need to investigate the T-stat delete.
