Default 160 deg thermostat

On my 2nd vette now (C6) and have never gotten used to cruising temps (coolant) of 196-200 and 220 in traffic. I finally got around to installing the 160 deg stat and now enjoy cruising temps of 176-180 and 200-210 at idle or in heavy traffic. This is without a tune or any adjustment to the fans. I suspect the temp in traffic may also drop after the tune and fan adj. Being old school (but not a techie) I tend to think this is a good thing. Am I right or only dreaming? Those who have done this please chime in!
