    New thermostat won't do shit unless you also get a low heat trigger switch I think..

    lower opening thermostat does what is says..opens at a lower temperature.

    i think for a street car you probably safer getting one and not bothering with the low temp thermoswitch.. coz the fan wont do much just result in using more fuel.due to turning on earlier when its not really needed.

    you could probably justify using a lower temp thermostat since you have a turbo and the turbo should be kept cool i guess.
