    180f. You can get a 170. I already have it but it only dropped my temps a few degrees.

    I need to redo mine. Will be giving it a shot, while trying to clean up a leak, and consolidate it into just one part.

    I have a different setup. Not related to any discussed here. Don't worry.

    Havn’t had time to install it yet, but I know some others in the supercharged thread are running it.

    After installing the cfs radiator, my temps only dropped a few degrees. I knew that the factory thermostat was probably the bottle neck in my quest for 185* running temps.

    After dropping in the mishimoto 160* t-stat/housing, now I am struggling getting past 174* operating temperature. It has been little cooler outside than usual, however, I think I was too aggressive stepping down 20* in thermostat opening temperatures.

    Anyone else running into this issue?

    That's not a bad thing. That's where it works. Just watch if during the winter times. If it has a difficult time reaching over 168°, then you will want to get a 170° thermostat.

    My worry now is that even the 174* was reached for a brief moment on the hwy cruising at 80, revving close to 3k (4.88 on 35s), is not going to allow for the oil to properly warm up.

    I am not sure if mishimoto offers a 170* t-stat. The 160* was a good option because it came in the same OEM housing and was very easy to install and the price is great.

    The oil will get to temp just fine.

    2nd gens are better, change my mind.
    From those who have the new drop in version, where is the best place to buy these? Any warranty provided that anybody knows of, whether it be through the vendor or CSF itself?
