Question radiator caps!!

hmm.......mugen or spoon sports???

mugen goes for $29 + shipping and the spoon goes for $33 + shipping. the mugen says 1.3 kg/cm^2 and the spoon is 1.35 kg/cm^2..........

anyone get the mugen??? how is it?? it actually has an application for it if u click on TL at www.kingmotorsports.com . what i was wondering is.......the spoon one has 2 different types:
d-type for honda civic and integra and f-type. the f-type says it fits nsx. nsx is v6.....u think it'll fit our cars??

I've been wondering about the mugen cap too, I haven't heard anybody that has it on the V6 though. I'm sure it's not gonna do anything for performance, but it is a nice touch under the hood. the .5 kg/cm isn't gonna make much of a difference, so I'd just go with the one that one like the best and has the best design. I've been thinking about getting the mugen one, but I've heard king motorsports isn't the greatest on customer service, so I am kinda afraid to order one from them. I know you can find the mugen caps on ebay, but be careful because a lot of them are knock off ones, you can tell which ones are real by the packaging, and the fact that they don't say mugen "style" radiator cap!

The real JDM mugen one goes for about $60-70. The $29 one that you see is a "Mugen Style" radiator cap. "Mugen Style" and the real "Mugen" are different.

I have the Mugen radiator cap, oil cap and pedals.....all ordered through King motorsports. First off, there is no obvious performance gains by changing any of the caps. I bought it mainly for looks and style since I have the Mugen spoiler and converted to Inspire badging. haven't been able to take pics yet, but I will post soon.

The one on the king motorsports website is the real mugen emblem. Its $29 if I remember correctly. I've never seen them as much as 60-70, where did you get yours at?
