If they would get a programmer to work for gas trucks on a palm pilot like they have for diesel trucks there would be no issue. The one they have for diesels gives you a temp guage on the palm pilot with an actual number. Then I would need no dash gauges at all. I use the palm pilot for my gps maps now and it is nice to have. Also alot cheaper than the in dash gps.

 

Has anybody here tried the coolant additives??? Water wetter, Purple Ice?

 

Is anyone worried about cyinder wash with the 160?

 

I have read so many mixed reviews about that benpfeil. I personally don't think it makes a significant difference lowering the tempature, but that's just me. A lot of the old school gear heads will tell you that low stats in the long run, can potentially damage the engine, but who the hell knows? I ordered a 160 stat a couple of months ago, but they sent me the wrong damn stat! It was for a LS2! I don't know how the hell you can get the two mixed up, but whatever. I sent it back and got a refund, but I haven't ordered another yet. I'm not sure if I will too. I want to do some more research before I do.

 

I have a buddy that has a mustang had he ran into that issue with it cause it scorched the pistons

 

My buddy has had the 160 stat in his for a while now. He has 180,000 miles and no problems... I've got one on mine, too. Adds a lot of power. I'd say do it. Makes your truck run about 185 degrees.
