Stock radiator + aftermarket Shroud to fit SPAL fans - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

jflogerzi · 09-08-2014, 01:59 PM

I am about to order my JDL EL Base turbo kit. Based on what @jamesm mention for the power levels I am targeting, the stock radiator with a proper shroud should be fine. Which company makes these?

Stock shroud and fans work great

Fullblown's shroud works with JDL's kit. I have their rad + shroud on my car with the JDL EL kit

Because the JDL kit (and many other turbo kits) require smaller fans for clearance purposes.

I don't know if FBM's shroud works with the stock radiator or if it only fits with the radiator they sell.
Carolina Dyno also makes an aluminum shroud, fits the stock radiator, comes with connectors for a plug and play affair.

The kits comes with an upgraded fan because of the tight clearance. Why not just drop in a new radiator while you are at it, since its a good upgrade and not that costly !

Are you sure. I message them on the boards and they said it only fits the Koyo radiator.

Just go with FBMs cooling solution you won't regret it and its well worth the money

FBM make a shroud for your OEM radiator. Just tell them you already have the fans
