I have just installed the thermostat and I'm waiting for the switch and radiator cap. At the moment no big difference. I think all togeter give you a better protection against the heating and a lower engine operating temperature

Is it ok for Daily Driving, like do you get Good Heat in the morning ect..... The only reason why i ask these questions is because my Buddy says that these Mugen Parts are for Track Only and should not be Driven Daily. He said that your car would never run at Normal Operating Temp... Is that True?
Thanks For Everyones Help

it will definitely run cooler than stock, the problem is it could be running in cold enrichment mode all the time

I never thought it would be worth buying. I run Redline Water wetter and I noticed an improvement with that. I would run a toggle switch on the fan instead of the Mugen switch, that way if you're sitting in the staging lanes you can let your fan run with the car off. Just an idea.

That's if you place these parts in a stock car or one that doesn't produce enough heat I'd imagine.

So i guess its not worth Putting on... this stuff will be going into a B20Vtec Set Up
B20B Stock Block
PR3-3 Head
PassWordJDM CF Camber Intake
DC 4-2-1 Header
NGK Plugs
MSD Spark Plus Wires (Soon To Be Spoon )
ITR Intake Manifold

Later in the Week:
Skunk2 Stage One Camshafts
Buddy Club P1 Cam Gears
OBD1 Conversion
P28 Chipped B20Vtec Program
APEXi VAFC Controler With Tuning Maps

Sounds like a Good Combo, But is the Mugen Stuff Worth Putting On?

No, engine wear is significantly increased when engines run below operating temp. These parts in a short trip street car are not what they were intended for. Bad idea IMO.
