If the thermostat is missing on a 928 you will likely overheat (it works differently than most cars) - so it isnt that.

A lower temp thermostat is not a good idea on a 928 - it wants to run rather warm.. its a Porsche thing... (remember the air/oil cooled legacy = hot engines).

A lower temp thermostat helps nothing - if your max cooling capacity is insufficent you will overheat regardless of the thermostat temp (you will just run less efficiently most of the time) just stick with stock temps.
