-i just got a type-r with the following mods. i had to switch out my JDM ecu for the my USDM for inspection my question is should i stay with the USDM ecu or switch back to JDM. right now it runs perfectly fine with Both. i just hear that the JDM's run rich sometimes so idk i havent gotten strait answers most ppl are either for or against it.
- also my temp guage plays games and never actally heats up to normal temp is that from the mugen thermo?

Yes. Operating temperature: 68°C (STD.: 76~80°C) Full-throttle acceleration temperature: 81°C (STD.: 90°C). You should use a Mugen fan switch with this.
