Temp Help
You guys with turbo chargers...What temperature do have tha fans set to come on? Just got a TTi X kit installed and the installer set it at 190* sounds like it runs full time. Should I install a lower temp thermostat.

Stock Thermostat is ~194 so you will need a lower temp thermostat to prevent your fans from running full time.
Congrats on the kit!

I agree with the 160 T Stat, but once that is installed to get the fans to come on at that temp you will have to have the computer tuned for it.

I never changed from the stock therm. I do know the fans kick on around 190 coolant temp.
