We'll i just picked up a 170 Degree low temp. thermostat for my 3s. I was wondering if anyone else was using one and how they liked it. I bought the Gates 170 Degree Thermostat, looks like a quality thermostat, hopefully i can put it in tomorrow, but i wanted to post up on here first and see who was using one and how they liked it. not just the 3sgte but the 5s, 7a, any motor.

I will clarify a thing, on stock ECU you lose power at stock boost level installing this, engine will be running richer/safer
On a standalone system, you can use all the advantages out of having colder water.
Read the previous posts for more information.
