Not to mention the thermostat temperature is the temperature at which the thermostat just begins to open, not the fully open temperature. When its in the 40's my car runs around 169-170 on the highway according to the scanmaster... And I have a becool radiator.

Your research is wrong.

This definitely wouldn't help with cooling at all. I guess my real world results are wrong too.
