Save up for a 160 degree t-stat. Unless you run with mostly water there is not a noticable decrease in the temp.
I have a 160 T-Stat and a SLP Radiator. I also have a Pulley which I heard will cause you to run hotter because the water pump is not putting out as much. I might have too much dexcool from my last radiator pull. I think I will just drain some out and add water.
