    It fits, I take it?

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM

    Well, the mugen caps have a higher pressure than the regular ones. Our cap has 0.9bar and the Mugen cap has 1.3

    I'm not sure on how the headgasket would react to the added pressure

    as Jean said, they provide more pressure for a control environment. This means lower boiling point for a given heat input. So yeah, it helps keep the temperature rise rate down a little bit.

    i just run my fan all the time lol.
