Reading some of these references to the old days I'm reminded that it used to be common practice to remove the thermostat in the summer and reinstall it in the winter. After all, it is a device to warm up the engine to a pre-determined temperature in the colder seasons. Lots of people used to run straight water in the summer too before the days of good quality permanent anti freeze.

in 93 you cannot buy a plug in reprogramer for your computor. you must add a performance chip. hypertech is one of the best out there. if you go to Hypertech.com you will find all the info you need for your application. for mind it changed the time or temp the fans come on plus it changes your timing and general running of your engine to get the most performance out of your stock engine. it some cases it will actually improve milege.
your right that is the way to go, (on dyno)I had my harley dynoed last year in daytona w/ the power programer installed not only did it jump the H.P. but i am now able to burn 87 octane. unfortunately Hypertech does not sell a programer for the 93 that's why i had to put in chip. the chip install time is only 20 minutes and it does work. the only downside is you must burn 93 octane with programer you can select range of octane. (87,89.91etc) i also have hypertech programer installed on my wifes 05 suburban and it works, milege is better performance (if any) is better and thats not bad considering the weight of the brick thru the wind.I use my Hyper Tech Power Programmer, as the 96 has the OBDII computer and I can plug it in the port and down load my stock GM program and install the H-T HP program that turns on the fans sooner and adds some extra HP. But the best way is to have a Dyno Tune done with a custom mapping. But really more expensive and I can reistall my stock map for the winter time:cool
Just cruising and around towns the temp. runs 190. In the city, in traffic on a warm day it will reach 225. Temp will drop like a rock as soon as traffic opens up.
