Hi All,

Just got my 90403-S JET chip today and installed it without a problem. I also installed the 10177 "180 degree" T-Stat.
Previously I had installed a ScanGuage-II digital OBD monitor, so I know the stock T-Stat maintained a constant temperature of 195 degrees at idle on a fall day in Northern California.

With the 10177 installed I get 198 degrees!

Does a new T-Stat need some time to get broken in?

JET techsupp says "sorry, you should put the stock part back in then."

So if you plan to install a 180 T-Stat, just get the $6 variety.

Uhmmm. Ya.

This is what everyone here has been saying for the longest of times...

Sad thing is, everyone insists on getting the Jet version.

Sucks getting ripped off, don't it?

 

So are they going to give you your money back if it's not working right? Or are you just SOL

 

Well how about the chip hows it feel?

 

i been reading mix reviews about both the napa and jet. some say napa and other say the jet one is better.

 

Money back? I have my doubts. I won't even swap it back out unless I get a ping.

It does indeed suck to get ripped off, like when Dodge sold me an iron V-8 suspended by Neon struts...

Maybe when my blood pressure returns to normal I'll share my impressions of the chip's worth.

 

yea i guess. did u install ur self?

 

my napa stat works great and for the price i purchased two

 

oh yeah i guess ill buy the napa thermostat since there is a napa in my school. so if u say it works good. u feel any difference when u installed it with the mods u have?
