B&G temp

Hello all
I'm going to order the b&g stage 2 on Monday and noticed it will turn the fans on sooner how much cooler will it run or should I do the gsm fan/esp mod too. Should I go with a 170 or 180 thermostat I'm in Florida so it's always hot. I was also contemplating on getting the gsm tcm but I'm not sure still.Tks for any info.

It will not do that unless you order stage4...I have stage3 with 160 thermostat and it doesn't do it...period.

We have a couple of cars with Stage2 and another 3 cars with stage 3, all with 160 thermostat...But none of them has the option of the fans turning on earlier than stock

Have you contacted B&G? That seems like one of the very desirable features. What did they say?
