^^It wont move too fast.. it just will be allowed to flow through the radiator all the time versus opening and letting some through to cool.. controlled by the tstats temp rating.

I ran straight distilled water with water wetter the last summer I had my gsx, along a 180 thermostat. It did run about 10 degrees cooler, but my fans were also too small. I tried taking the tstat out alltogether but that just delays temps getting up to normal.. they eventually get up there anyway. It just takes the car longer to warm up.
