No Thermostat it is just a billet plate that diverts oil from the filter to the cooler and then back to the filter. It just serves as a place to tap into the oil system with out having to drill or get a second pump. My oil temps get very high very fast to I'm concerned about the high temp break down more than the start-up. The majority of the wear at startup isn't because the oil isn't up to speed it's because there is no oil pressure at start-up. No oil pressure means no hydraulic wedge to keep from having metal on metal contact. That is why the accusumps are nice. They are just a accumulator large enough to handle small transients and provide pressure for start-ups. My car will be making the transition to race-car so I'm working on the items that will maximize the longevity of the components. So less weight and less heat.
