I believe the stock thermostat was 180 or 190... Someone had a 165 in mine when I purchased it, and switching it out to a 180 has actually improved the cooling (kinda surprised, especially since I have A/C). The car would occasionally try to overheat in hot weather with the A/C running in bumper to bumper... with the hotter thermostat, it actually stays cooler.
