[QUOTE="DSG2003Mach1, post: 16659448, member: 16477"] I have an on3 delete (did not change temps one way or another), and a 180 stat. I tried a 170, all it did was run too cold on the highway, did nothing to fight temp climb. Whatever year Mark 8 fan I have is single speed. heat extractor hoods and such aren't going to help when stopped, you need something driving air flow to force it through the coolers. voltage at idle on the gauge will drop into the low 12s/high 11s so in reality mid to low 12s at the batter (via Aeroforce so there's that whole disconnect between OBD2 and battery). Turning off the AC kills enough draw it bounces back up to 13+ on the gauge. Aftermarket stereo being on @ normal volume doesn't seem to matter. with the turbo kit I could go back to a 6 rib belt and the correct smaller alt pulley to get proper idle rpm without spinning it through the moon at redline but damn I dont wanna deal with all that really. I may swap the factory fan back for shits and giggles and see how it does @ idle, We've got about a month of stupid hot weather left. edit: I suppose another option I hadn't considered would be to raise my idle say 50rpms and see what happens, that would be ~140 @ the alternator [/QUOTE]
