Default Full Mugen Setup.

Does anyone have a full mugen setup on their R? Intake/Header/High flow cat/full catback? What kind of gains did you get? I am trying to decide if I am going to save for a full Mugen setup.

Default MUGEN motors anyone?

YOu mean this one sitting right in front of me?

Its for sure a very reliable motor, but in terms of big power, you wont find it with this.


And thats one expensive motor.

Design, size etc. Its more for Endurance racing though.
I believe from the pic that EP has a Fluidyne Unit.

The Mugen Radiator is a 3 core and also they have the air ducts which direct more flow to the rad for cooling. Mugen has a very high efficency ,durable and quality for that rad.

EP,

I am using the main fan, I removed the aux. fan with the AC system a few months ago. I also am in the process of installing an oil cooler. My last race at Streets of Willow resulted in my water temp averaging 215 degrees. Until then, I averaged no more than 190 degrees on tracks like Buttonwillow and Willow Springs (big Willow.)

Looks sweeeeeeet....

Did you install the N1-ECU as well (I'd assume so)? If so, how did it (combined with the H/E) improve the performance and drivablity (as I drive my ITR a lot, outright performance is not my only aim) of the car?
