Default mugen/spoon thermostat problems?

Does anyone have the mugen or spoon thermostat, radiator cap, and thermoswitch installed in their vehicle? Is it good or bad to have? I have heard that it will make your engine run too cold. Just wondering...

Spoon thermostat is too cold. Mugen is fine. All the other parts don't make a big difference.

your engine will still operate at the same temp....

the thermostat just opens at a colder temp, and flows better

the fan switch comes on more because it also comes on at a cooler temp
