Actually you want the coolant to stay in the radiator longer to cool before it circulates. If the coolant is flowing more often at a lower temp via the stat, then its not cooling down enough, and can actually cause the engine to run warmer. That's why the stock 192-195* stat is recomended, so the coolant has time to "hangout" in the radiator cool before flowing again.
