Jim stop it, thats not true and you are making yourself look a tit

With a motorsport stat the fan will be less likely to come on.

As Gorilla says they open at 55*c and stay open wheras the standard one will be opening and closing constantly very slightly even on sprirted runs.

If your coolant is running cooler, your engine is running cooler, your oil etc etc. Thermal transfer.

They work, and the standard dials are not 100% accurate either.

Get one in Shimmy, I 100% guarantee it will help with longevity of your car.
