Quite honestly, I left it set with 1100 ohms.  I suspect you'd have to do
actual dyno runs in order to perfectly tune it to your particular engine
setup.

Here's a graph from Bentley:

Apparantly, the coolant temperature sensor is not the most precise device
in the world.  Luckily, it gets more precise as the temperature increases. 
At 0 deg C, resistance is between 5000 and 6500 ohms.  At 100 dec C, it is
between 175 and 225 ohms.
