My question is, what should be normal temperature for a turbocharged honda. I ask because mine has been reading 210 degrees and it seems kind of hot. Is 180 normal. I might just go ahead and get a lower temp thermastate. i am runnin the 180 right now and have the royal purple water wetter and i have the radiator fan on constant to keep the temp from rising. This is all on the stock radiator... Just a question that I just remembered... I can drive an easy 60 miles with it at 210 but sometimes it goes a little past to 220... Thats when i kick the heater on... In the summer its just gonna kill the car here in TX since it gets pretty hot..

thanks in advance for replies.

I would think you would be alright as long as it stays below 210. Ideally you would want it in the 180 to 190 range. I would for sure look into a different thermostat and maybe a better flowing fan if you don't want to upgrade the radiator to an aluminum one.
