Re: HPP3 160 Powerstat Still Running At 195 That is where mine is and I called them and they said the factory gauge is not real accurate it shows 210 to 200 but with a scanner you will see that it is about 185 to 190

Re: HPP3 160 Powerstat Still Running At 195 I have the 160 t-stat and HPP3 set. I do a lot of hwy driving and it shows 170-175 crusing along at 85mph about 1800 rpm's. When I get down on city streets it goes to 180-185.
This weekend when on the dyno it topped out at 200 at the end of each pull.
