It's actually the opposite. The mugen tstat has a lower opening temperature to provide engine cooling sooner. Fan will kick in less often and vehicle will take longer to warm up.

copy directly from mugen
Mugen thermostat operates at a lower temperature compared to the original thermostat. It prevents engine power loss by minimizing rapid water-temperature rises under harsh conditions such as during circuit driving. The use of a flow-control-type valve prevents hunting, thereby achieving rapid stabilization of the water temperature (the engine warms up within a short period).
it says engine warms up faster?
