33606, People w/ 160 degree thermostats?

Once you get to operating temp does it ever drop below that? Sometimes mine does like when the heater is on or on the highway. Not too far but it's noticeably below the middle where it's supposed to be. It's not even that cold here yet. Maybe like high 50's.

That's intresting mine just hangs out like 1mm below the middle and never moves unless my famous overheating crap starts to happen.

mine varies from 170 deg to 207 deg based on how fast im going and what the outside temp is. If you want to see the actual values, you can moniter the real-time ECT with your new datalogger :)

Nope mine either. (But going by stock gauge, haven't put in a water temp gauge yet)
