Come on man, search and you shall find.....

Mugen fan switch 37760-XK5-00N0
Mugen radiator cap 19045-XGER-0000
Mugen low temp therostat 19301-XGMR-0000

The radiator cap is the same for all Denso Radiators.

The Fan Switch is from a Civic

The Low Temp Thermostat is from a Prelude.

Fan switch and thermostat are the most important components. I have the Mugen radiator cap but have never installed. Have not found the need.

But if you have it, why not just install it?

Eventhough I have the Mugen cap, I elected not to use it as I did not want to add increased pressure to the system. The Mugen cap is rated at a higher pressure than the stock cap before it releases pressure. Increasing the pressure increases the boiling point of the fluid but my thought was that it should not be an issue. I should not be boiling over the system with the stock cap. If I do, I've got other problems that I should deal with. Plus, why increase the pressure in the system if you don't need to. Increased pressure = additional stress.

Does anyone in cold climates have this mod and does it effect anything when it's cold. I live in Chicago and drive year round so i'm worried when the temps drop to 32 and below. Thanks

I live in Chicago and have the cooling mods. No problem whatsoever.
I have the fan switch, thermostat, radiator cap, and Thermoblock spacer with the TB bypass. I leave the bypass on year round.

Thanks guys I have all the parts, but was hesitant due to the winter months coming. I didn't want to install them, then have to uninstall in a couple months.
