\r\n \r\n IMO the theory is that if you don\'t have a thermostat it wont build up the appropriate amount of heat in order to get warm air out of the vents to keep u warm in the cold or to defrost your windows.

\nAnother things is some people says it wont let the engine get warm enough to get up to temp to put it into the open loop (or is is closed lol I get them mixed up)\r\n

Well, I asked before and I didn't really get a reasonable response.

Why are you NOT supposed to gut or remove the thermostat?

It seems to me that if there was no Thermostat the water will continually go through the radiator at all times. Mate it with an aftermarket thermo switch and you would turn the Efans ON at any temperature range and ensure that the car is being cooled properly. Right?

The only problem is that everyone says don't do it but they never say WHY. I trust you all (which is why I haven't done it) but is there more to the reasoning besides just "no, don't do it?"
