There's a big benefit if you're driving on the highway, or you can turn your fans on at any time (or a lower temp). A 180* by itself will just make the coolant just as warm as a 195* when stopped, but it'll get much cooler on highway driving.

My recommendation, if you're going to do a 160*-180* thermo, do a fan switch at the same time, cause that's the only way you will really benefit from it.


Most GP owners do it at the same time that they do a fan-control mod, just like I'll be throwing in that Casper's swtich when I get my drilled 180* thermo...
