By best I mean coolest in my opinion, not best performance-wise. I dont think you can squeeze to much power from the cap though.

sure you can...it holds the oil in tighter, therefore creating more pressure, which turns into PSI..... so a cooler cap = more boost...

duh

Coincidently I place an order at Mazdatrix for this Oil Cap. I bought It for styling. No performance gains here.

Once, at an autox my cap came off (user error). And in a pinch I used a red rag and a bunge cord.

Now, that had the bling bling
