Use the search and find out what people here say about the hypertech and then decide if you still want it. I bet you will end up getting a mail order tune instead.

Looking in my Chilton manual (99-2005), Section 3-3, Replacing the thermostat. It doesn't say anything about there being a differnce between 03 and 04. There's only one set of instructions for the V-8. Also, it says the thermostat, housing and the o-ring are preassembled as a single unit and must be replaced as a unit. Their pic looks like the stat would just come out of the housing???
I'm sure there are plenty of people out there with 2005's that have changed their stats. Can you just get a good stat at autozone or is the stat and housing all connected?
Also in my last truck ('93 350 TBI) I ran a 160 stat and liked it. Any suggestions on the 160 or 180 stat??
Thanks for your help.
