I think the stock fans come on at 230 (good for emissions, bad for engine life), from what I understand, about 160-180 is a good range for the fan to come on, check the tech articles for an "emissions legal" way to do this (basicly bypasses the stock fan switch unless you're having emissions tested, then you turn the bypass off

i have a 160 degree t-stat, functional hood scoop into an open element 14x3 k&n, cowl induction, and electric fan and my car rarely ever reaches the 220 middle temp gauge mark (only gets to that point on a very hot 100 degree or so south carolina day and when im running her hard).
