well i got the slp performance pac 330....you can see it on their site. came with headers ,x pipe,catback,air filter,under drive pullies,160 theromstat and a daiblo predator tune with a pre tune with the parts just installed, so im assuming the stat should be ok since it was diablo tuned that way....next will probably be the intake,tb/plenum combo, then gears, then adjsutable struts thanks for the advice

If they tuned for the 160, then it should be ok. You can change the change over temp for the base fuel table in the EEC, if they did that along with the fan settings, then it shouldn't be a problem.

Re-read, and your statement was incorrect. We are in agreement that the 160 t-stat is doing more harm than good, but it is not "probably keeping it in open loop", it is not "maybe keeping it on open loop", it is NOT keeping it in open loop. That is a common misconception that the eec does not go into closed loop until it reaches operating temp. The change over into closed loop is time based, not temp based. The delay is partly temp based, meaning the colder it is, the longer the delay, but it does not wait for operating temps to be reached. I'm not picking on you directly, just clearing up the facts.

I said, "probably", you said that I said "it will"...I cleared up the "guarantee" because I didn't guarantee it would. I said, probably, you said I said it will, you cleared it up. It's done...
