I went with PFYC.com a sponser here and ordered a 160* for a 05 GTO. My GXP still has the stock programing and I have thrown zero codes in the last year that I have had it installed. I will tell you with the stock programing you will not realize the full potential of a 160* thermostat because the fans will still not come on until the car hits 195* or so. The car does cool down faster when driving with it, but stop and go traffic still heats it up the same because the fans are not coming on any eariler.

I don't see why one couldn't wire a switch to the relay like most everyone else does. I don't know if the ECM can monitor the status of the fans or not though.
I had a switch wired into my Z28 for track runs, that with a 160 thermo made a huge difference on a hot day at the track. If I get bored this weekend, I'll check out the wiring of the fan relays.

Verdad Gallardo Thanks for the replies. I still need to put the thing in. Looks like a pain to get to if I am looking in the right place. Anyone have a pic of where the housing is? Thanks again.
