redline water wetter and upgraded radiator. but why would you want your car to run cooler? running too cool can cause your ecu to stay in closed loop mode and reduce gas mileage because it thinks its not hot yet. this is how alot of those ebay 20+hp chip bullcrap works by making it think its running cooler.

make sure your completly full of water, get the coldest thermostat like a 160 or 170, (taking them out will leave you with little or no heat) or a BE COOL radiatorComment

...This was more of an intake design and transfer of air into the intake system. They do have cowl hoods that help cooling but it looks wierd on a honda.Originally posted by F20A CB7

then it will just heat up slower, but will run at the same max temp on any extended driving. takes longer to get the heater working too.Originally posted by 9tAkordComment

is your car an auto or stick, if stick you can "upgrade" to a auto radiator and that will drop your temp, but not noticeably.Comment

Well if you just want the gauge to read lower, then disconnect the sensor and it'll be stone cold forever
IIRC closed loop mode starts once the O2 sensor gets warm enough to provide the ECU with a usable signal. Doesn't take long for that to happen sitting in the exhaust manifold.Opal Metallic Green '92 LX 2dr manual, 181k miles, '94 prelude VTEC wheels for summer (steelies with snow tires for winter), Omni-power struts/springs, and other junkComment
