Opinions on Spoon/Mugen radiator caps...
I need a new radiator cap so I thought I might as well look into a Spoon or Mugen cap. Are there any downsides to putting a higher pressure cap on? Would the increased pressure cause older or poorly treated systems to leak easier? Is it worth about twice the amount of an OEM cap.

Those radiator caps aren't that expensive to begin with. It can be had for $30 or so.
I think someone did a comparison between the Spoon and the Mugen. He preffered the Spoon for the extra 5 hundredths of pressure, go figure

Stock 1.1 BAR
Mugen 1.3 BAR
Increases the pressure in the system, therefore raises the boiling point of the fluid...for an additional $15 get the Mugen

Well I got jipped because Bishop gave me his after the Spoon sticker got scratched off... so I just have to "believe" that it is a Spoon radiator cap, haha. At least it came in a Spoon box. haha

Are you the seller by chance? I think I've seen gt-sport as a seller on ebay. What about a Honda-tech discount?
