Normally, an engine makes it's most power from 185-200 degrees. The
computer won't even notice this unless you're running it below 160 degrees.

Subject: DML: 180T statment. Correct?
I saw this statement about using the 180T.
Does this sound correct?
"Do you know that messing with the thermostat
increases the amount of fuel delivered to the
cylinders, which doesn't completely burn. In turn,
the O2 sensor tells the computer to lean out the
mixture, and then before you know it you've lean
burned a hole in a piston, not to mention burning out
the catalytic converter"
I my be wrong on this but:
If the mixture is normal/correct and you change to a
180T then its runs rich which causes the computer to
lean it back out aren't you back too the
normal/correct
mixture.
