First of all, you need to get the actual coolant temp from the ECM. I can get my dash gauges to change by turning on the lights. A scanguage-D or something will get this data.
May be counter intuitive, but a higher RPM will aid in cooling, so maybe a downshift under load would be called for. Putting the RPM closer to the max power / torque rating will lower the stress on the engine and circulate the coolant faster removing more heat.
Honestly, I'd be happy with 225° on a 100° day.
