    I have a 2000 firebird with 90k on it and a CAI whisper lid and k&n air filter. What do you guys recommend a 180 termo from JET or Hypertech?

    A thermostat is a thermostat. Just like a fuel filter, it won't make any difference what brand you get.

      There has got to be a difference between E-Murray(Oreilly's) and HyperTech. If not I would want my $$$ back. $4 as compared to what $32?
      My E-Murray broke. :(

            no, you get what you pay for.

            My Murray is stuck open (after 5000 miles). I dont know anyone with a broken HyperTech.

              Hypertech doesn't make their own stats, they just resell someone else's with a huge markup. There's probably only 2 companies at most who actually make them.

              Buy a $7 one next time? No need to spend $30

                The only difference is that people think expensive ones are better, and are willing to pay for it.

                  Where do you see 3.8l thermostats for $32? That is crazy, I have sold a few 160* new ones to people on here for like $15 shipped. $32 is a rip off.

                  But yea just get the one at murray's

                    I didn't even bother to check prices until now, but a Hypertech thermostat is only $10.
