i live in las vegas and las night i went to the track, while i waited in line for my first run the car was idling around 200 degrees out side temp was 62. car is bone stock except for a catback exhaust... on my second run the car got up to 225 degrees while i waited in the staging lines... i then parked the car and opened the hood to let i cool down while i watched for the next 2 hours. after that i went back started the car to run again and the temp was down to 140 degrees by the time i got through to race the temp had gone up to 195!!! also in the winter time the temp in vegas is in the high 50's low 60's and while driving my cars temp is around 196-202 so in the summer when it 110 outside the cars temp will be even hotter. so my question is should i install the 160 thermostat thats in my trunk?
