Do you know the temp rating of that new thermostat by chance?

Today my cooling system and a/c got really tested. Ambient temperature is 108°F (42°C) and the car’s temp didn’t rise past 208°F as displayed on RealGauge and confirmed via OBDII w/ an ELM327.

I’m happy with the new thermostat. And the a/c did an amazing job keeping me cool. In fact, I think the a/c may be better than my new Mini’s a/c.
