FFS… This thread is turning into another OZHonda shit fight bitch session…

The engine Jimmy is talking about failed in the care of Bel Garage,
We were informed by Bel it was retuned by JEM then DD…
But of course this is never talked about.
If we were to blame, we would have been contacted by the MVRIA
To date, we have not.

Now get this thread back on topic.
It’s supposed to be about Luke’s car & his trials & tribulations in the process of getting it to where he wants it…

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.

never too much cooling in a turbo car. I've got one, just need to put it in

Keep to topic...and for the record, any one accusing a tuner, be it DD, Hipower, Toda, with nothing else but malice gets an infraction from me, especially those trying to sell their own engines. Sell it on your own merit, not by bagging out others.

As far a I know they don't come per-tuned as just the bare unit..

Mine came pre-tuned and sold as a whole kit..
