Engine - ZXtuner Low Temp Thermostat - 2.0 Zetec Have you ever noticed that your car seems to have more power before it's completely warmed up? A cooler motor makes more power. This thermostat mod will help your motor run significantly cooler. The thermostat starts the coolant circulating in the radiator 15 degrees sooner than the stock thermostat, keeping internal engine and underhood temps down. Also, if you have an automatic trans, the lower temp radiator coolant will cool the trans cooler better as well, and that will extend the life of the trans. Kit contains a thermostat and mounting gasket. Fits 1995-2001 2.0 Zetec motors. P/N: Z-0005 Price:$ 16.99 This is at http://www.zx2racing.com/store FINALLY something to keep the temp down. Any one else have this thing. Im going to hopefully order it this friday : ) I hate looking at my temp guage when its in the AL of normal. ------------------ Nick F.

its ghetto.... i took the whole intake part out of the car, took a hacksaw and cut the ******* off! Then i took a spray can cap, smaller can type. Fitted it into place and used gasket maker goo to seal it up. Not really any HP increase but makes the engine look better. ------------------ Nick F.

No sound really, only at high rpm, not to much though. Now if there is any way to get rid of that big plastic box thing, then there would be noise and prodably some kind of power gain. ------------------ Nick F.
