Yea, people need to stop comparing temperatures and start comparing energy. My car produces ~125kW of waste heat at max load and stay at ~105C whereas my oven is limited to ~4kW and can reach 500C because it is insulated while my car has a massive cooling system.

Anyone able to test this? Lets see some real world results.
