I just installed the Hypertech 200/185 - I have a 180 thermo as well. I am pleased with it, except that once the car gets to op temp, the fan never stops running. I guess this is good, as everything stays nice and cool - but I was expecting it to go on and off as other cars do. Probably beter for the fan motor as well - a constantly running electric motor wears less I would suppose - like a light bulb - it's the on/off that causes them to bust the filament.
