NateZ Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Hey all. I will be putting my whipple with pcmforless custom tune and 42lb injectors on the truck within the week or two... and was thinking i should get a cooler stat. I live in south florida, so it's pretty hot 80 or above all the time. next fall i might be going to college in the north east so it will eb allot cooler there... So what should i do? stock, 180, or 160? and were is the best place to get one? Thanks, Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xero Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 i bought a 160* stat from slp. you can get just the stat for like 20 bucks, but the whole shabang-a-bang was 55 bucks (i got the delux version) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateZ Posted November 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Whats the difference between that whole 55 dollar thing and just the stat for 19.95? Anybody else answer my other questions? thanks, Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NateZ Posted November 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 I have an 03... so i guess i need the one with the housing right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xero Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 no....if you just want a new stat and wanna hassle with takin the old one out and replacing everything get just the stat. i opted for the more expensive lazy way out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jspeeddemon Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 The 160 won't run 160, that's just when it opens, mine runs about 180 all the time, higher in summer with a/c on and outside temp 80 plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
