Default Changing the thermostat to install jet performance module...

So I bought a stage 2 performance module for my 06 H2 from a forum member. It was brand new as promised & for $100 i couldnt pass it up. It says you have to have a free flow exhaust and 180 thermostat. I have a cat back flow master exhaust but need to do the thermostat. I looked the job up on all data & it's almost 2 hours...I was also told there are a few different ones & may be part of the water pump housing? Has anyone changed there thermostat on their H2? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone have this module on their truck? Says adds 25 hp and improves mpg...as I assume it leans the truck? Any other mods that should be done with this chip?

I have not changed mine, but you should be able to look down and see what type you have.... go to the passenger side, follow the hose down, and see if you have the aluminum type on the front side of the waterpump....

you might need to remove the air intake seagul to see it.

if you want me to take a picture of mine I can.

You have to remove the seagull.... drain the glycol, remove the stat housing, stat, clean the surfaces, install the new one, seal it, install the housing, refill it, run it to temp, run heat to bleed air, reinstall the seagull....

that's not 15 minutes....
