Did the same when I had the coolant changed after my cap failure last summer. So far needle reads lower than with the stock thermo. Haven't really been on a trip on a warm day to really challenge it but it the needle does read lower. Seems like ever since I had it installed my section of the globe has significantly cooled, go figure!

Along these mod lines, I recently picked up copy # 185 of the UK publication, "911 & Porsche World" and it has a nice review of the larger capacity oil sump which helps hard cornering cars from oil starving on long fast corners. Nice photo essay as installed by Autofarm. LNEngineering along with Jake Raby carry the kit.
