One other question, cold engine temps on a turbo S70

Sorry,

My newly purchased S70 turbo has brought a number of new questions. I took a ride down to the autoparts store today. Outside temps were in the high 40's. The route to the store is mostly all downhill. The engine temps stayed near the very bottom of the temp zone during the entire trip even though it was running for over 40 minutes. On the way home with plenty of uphill the temps were in the normal range. This is my first turbo, does the air on the intercooler work that well? Is the engine that much cooler or do I have a termostate stuck open? or maybe a bad mix of coolant?

Thanks,
