    thats what you have stock already. jet's crappy company just puts out modules for all cars basically with general guidelines. which is probably why they have been proven not to really do anything and in most tests LOSE power.

    if you are serious about performance, wait a bit on the diablo tuner to come out, or get the B-G reflash done.
    Why sit around and watch everyone else live YOUR dream? Plus how many 330lb Samoans do you see doing standing dropkicks?

    do you mean the thermostat?

    realistically unless you are running the car in a lean condition, which natuarally gets hotter...

    or a rich condition where you cause the engine to do more work, the thermostat where it is, is more than fine.

    the only time you really need higher octane which can cause the need for a lower thermostat, is when you advance timing to a large degree or increase compression, or have hotspots in the combustion chamber. higher octane is there to prevent pre-detonation. thats what octane is for. only use what you need to make it work without knock, anything else is overkill.

    I have 160* drilled thermostats that I use on the LH 3.5's with great success.
    Let me know if you are interested.
