you all make good points.

i think the factory stat was an 80, yes?

if so i would have that ready to install and do it when this one fails or if you start to have a problem with it overheating.

the only ill effect that i know of is at the higher temp you dont have as much heat sink available to soak up heat on a big hill. so you might have to slow down quicker than if you had the 80 installed.

not to worry.
