Very high quality piece. MOTIV is killing it lately.

Thanks.

I run a 180 degree thermostat, I like my oil temps a bit cooler. I would run anything from 180-210

If it helps keep oil temps lower, it's a big help!

I like my oil temps much lower than 235, I would do this to a stock car lol!

Turbo_power4ever · 03-05-2015, 04:51 PM

How does this compare to the RB plate? Should be the same correct? Its just a metal plate?

BMDoublYou · 03-05-2015, 07:00 PM

You had a RB plate before right? Are you selling it?

Lilbro · 03-07-2015, 08:18 PM

Your car is baddass Rob! Can you take some picture of how you mounted your remote oil thermostat?

N54 TuNeR · 03-07-2015, 10:12 PM

what about the low oil temp thermostat,that keeps oil temps cool and always flowing,wouldnt that be better instead of a temp controlled stat inline?
