Default Thermostat Question?

I'm running a LS/VTEC with a jackson supercharger without a thermostat right now! I've heard that its not good for the motor to not run one and always have it run cooler?Is this accurate?Thanks for the input

yes the motor needs a certain temperture to work not too hot nor too cold thats why cars have thermos, if you want to run alittle bit cooler use an aftermarket one for instance mugen thermo+radiator cap (1.3lbs) it would open up at a lower temp than the OEM one you can also get an aluminum radiator it would decipate heat alot better too
