Trident highflow from Supercheap should do? I'll put it on my 'to-mod' before Christmas list. Should be going to see a tuner in january so I'll ask them to fiddle with the tempsSent from my 0PJA10 using Tapatalk Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91337-can-i-stop-thermo-fans-from-running-while-the-car-is-off/page/2/#findComment-1568554 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you park in the carport, maybe spray a bit of water through the grille onto the radiator with a garden hose?

I drove slow in the neighborhood till I got home.I thought this was enough time for the car to cool down, but apparently not.Anyways, you can replace the thermostat with a new one, but I reckon you will still have the same issue.The guys at Monsta torque put in a lower temperature activated thermostat and adjusted the tune.The stock Thermostat activates at something like 90 degrees and the one they put in activates at 82 degrees I think.Made quite the difference.
