[QUOTE="AvanT, post: 1064075591, member: 73772"] The thermostat is there for a reason, it only opens up to allow hot engine coolant to flow thru the radiator when it exceeds the set temp. If U remove it completely, then it will take your engine a long time to warm up during a cold start or 1st start in the morning. Furthermore, an engine is designed to run optimum at its normal operating temperature, running it too cold or revving it hard when cold may not be a good idea. I had a friend who did exactly that in his GSR, he regretted it after a while & had the thermostat installed back, engine took forever to warm up, fuel consumption turned really bad too. [/QUOTE]
