Upgrade thermostat for 3rd gens

Do not get the one that opens cooler. 68 is too low. It will take a long time to warm your engine, and your engine may run too cool. Believe it or not, the engine does have a optimal temperature to produce power. In addition, other sensors use the temp to set the running of the engine.
Do a search on the list; someone dynoed their car with different temp settings with the PFC, and they found that they made 40 more hp at 85 then at 75.
The best tip is to get a new 180 tstat, replace it every 40k miles, and buy a larger radiator.
