It would be great if you could figure out a way to actually measure
the airflow, but I think that would be really hard.
Given all the plumbing that the air has to pass thru, I have a hard
time believing that the presense of the thermostat makes any
measurable difference at all. Plus, taking it out deprives the system
of that parallel path of moderating air, so I'd really expect the
overall airflow to be greater with all the OE parts in place.
