Ditto on the 160!

My temps now never exceed 185!

Of course, the PCM was tuned by PCM4Less as well!

I threw in a 160 in my V6 and no b/s it actually dropped the temp without a tune or anything. Everyone says don't go that low without a tune but I m with you guys I never see over 190 even sitting in traffic!
