Before the end of this month i plan on ordering the mugen radiator, radiator cap, thermostat, & fan switch and running the mugen ECU permanately, my car is stock right now and these will be my first mods, what kind of gains should i expect from a setup like this. I will be doing a before & after dyno once i get the products, i just want to know what i'm getting myself into from anybody that has experience with these products before i put the money down, thanks.

 

I don't think you will see gains, just more stability when your hard on the car.

 

When did Mugen start making a fan switch???????? I know Spoon does, but I didn't think I saw one on the King Motorsports site?

Mugen just came out with it this year.

As for the planned mods... unless you plan on doing some serious racing, don't bother with the radiator or the cap. The switch and thermostat do enough in terms of lowering operating temp and the stock setup (otherwise) has plenty of capacity- I haven't had problems racing yet, and I'm in TX.

 

Are any of you guys running the Mugen ECU, this is the part i'm worried most about. The rep that i talked to from king said i should be fine running the Mugen ECU with the other parts i'm going with as long as i use a high octane fuel(i use 94), i just want everything to run smooth w/out problems if you know what i mean.
