AS all of you know the 2G uses a 180F thermostat and I wanted to go to a 160F one. I see the spoolnup sells it with its radiator but wanted to know if anyone knows that part number for it?

I would think that 160F would be too low for your car. I have heard reports (possibly info from Tom Stangl) that the car must reach a certain temperature, or it will stay in warm-up mode and not run correctly. I would just stick with a 180; I'm pretty sure 195 is stock.
The stock rad doesnt have the cooling capacity to drop the temps down to 160f, even if you pull the thermostat out the temps wont drop to 160f.
The rad from spoolinup on the other does have the cooling capacity, so thats why they include the 160f thermostat.
