    unless they changed their inventory, autozone has the 160 thermostat. I'm sure that other places like advanced have them too.. honestly though, if you dont need a 160, dont run it.. you're engine can be too cold and not heat up enough to facilitate a complete burn. there have also been talks of accelerated engine wear due to exagerated expansion and contraction of your engine caused by the bigger heat changes.

      im not a big fan of running lower thermos. I wouldnt go lower then 180, if your putting a lower one in becuase your car is overheating, your just delaying the problem you have. Its overheating for a reason and its going to eventually get worse. Fix the problem not the thermo.

        Do you have a catalytic converter or straight pipe?If you dont have the Cat and you rev really high you can have black smoke come out.
