Need more info, how are you connecting real dash to your car?

Is it displaying a static 150 or moving around? Which data source have you selected for Coolant Temp, are temp units set to Celsius?

180f is 82c still could be conversion issue.

I’m not familiar with MS so not going to try to comment on that.

There is a temperature option in Megasquirt connection settings. Some Megas send temperature as Fahrenheit even when configured to show Celcius. Switching this connection settings option fixes that.
