Anyone adjusted their settings for the 170 degree thermostat and can post what they use?

I know how to do that on the SCT tuner. But I haven't the slightest idea on how to change the settings on the nGauge

What does changing the settings in the tune do actually?

Well when you have a 170 thermostat I person like to make my fans come on around 180 degrees, but you have to go in and change the settings in the tune.

I set my fans to turn on at 188 low speed and 190 high speed

Lund does it in the tune with the ngauge. He said my settings right now with the factory thermostat are 170 20%, 180 65% and 195 100%.

Here's the stock fan setting table in HP Tuner. If you want it to work like factory with the 170* stat then back everything up 20*. I believe factory is about 190*???

Maybe something like this

You need two tunes with different settings if you drag race. One so the fan turns off at freeway speeds so the fan doesn't run constantly. And one for drag strip so the fan runs constantly, with engine running, so in the staging lanes it helps cool the heat exchanger and engine.

I'll keep that in mind.
