It'll slow the flow down a bit.A restrictor is to a T-stat like a "Test-tube" used to be to a catalytic converter...sort of.An open housing/water neck(what ever you want to call it )flows way to much.On my SCCA car,i run a restricter all the time.It just happened that the cooling system/motor liked the flow of the restricter better than a T-stat
