Run no rad cap. Vent the excess pressure and it will run cooler.

I'm curious too. The stockers on the rads are 1.0 kg/cm2. Something has to happen when you go Mugen (1.3) or Spoon (1.35).

lol...ya, upgraded radiatore cap helps hold down all the preassure from the boost your building in your radiator....so if your running say 20+ pounds...you will need the spoon one with the 1.35kg

lol

like stated, before...why is this in forced induction forum?
