[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 6949410, member: 11681"] The stock stat during testing is not at the full open position until almost 210f. To get it to act(flow) like a true 180f many of us have drilled multiple holes with good success. To replicate a 160 on a stat that doesn't achieve full flow till 210 would be tough. However 3 or four 3/16" or 1/8" holes will get you pretty darn close to 170 or 180 respectively, and that should be good enough. Let's not forget about lowering fan kick points though. If you are sitting in traffic with the factory kick points set still on your fan, it is going to creep up and get hot. Those with over 500 RWHP will need to take a serious look at cooling if they want to keep things together. Air flow is a huge deal, and if it can be increased in a significant way, it can cool where just changing parts may not. [/QUOTE]
