Radiators...which one?
Hard to make a decision on what to get! It is winter here now (southern hemisphere), but summer is coming and want to keep the engine as cool as possible. Stock with intake and soon headers!
Very interested to hear your experience and recommendations. So far I see: - Mishimoto - Koyorad - Full Blown with shroud (very tempting) - Robispec and maybe others? Happy to hear your experiences, how much you paid, it was worth the investment, etc...please keep it civilized. |
Anyone? no one?

Will you be doing FI?

I have FBM radiator with their shroud and SPAL fans. I live in Texas where heat is intense at times. I have the Innovate supercharger and so far have not had any issues with cooling. Quality of the radiator and shroud is excellent. Only complaint is the brackets that hold the coolant overflow tank. It does the job but could be better. Overall though I am very happy with my purchase. Would recommend it to anyone.

Robispec, oil cooler and radiator all in one :thumbsup:

@Hawk77FT did you overheat last summer?
If not i would look into an oil cooler before upgrading the radiator. |
For what you plan to have (intake and exhaust upgrades) insulating the headers (ceramic coating and thermal wrap) might be a better path.

Pretty much. Too bad, because his radiator/oil cooler is probably THE best cooling solution for our cars.
It's near impossible to contact Robispec, and many have waited a LONG time for their ordered and paid for parts. Quote:

Ive really never seen the point of an aftermarket radiator?

Went with the Mishimoto, and the hose kit. About to install it this weekend. Quality looks pretty good when seeing it in person. The lifetime warranty is what got me with it and they've been used on many cars for years. I'll be supercharging after this install.
You really can't go wrong with any of the 4 you listed. The Robispec one is probably the tightest fit because of the size and the cooler built in. |
