it says 16 row.

I really want to resolve this high coolant temp issue (220F just driving stop and go traffic today again) and the next step I am thinking is drilling holes in the front bumper, FB shroud for stock rad/fan set up. My custom TC kit is so tight in their, I am not sure if the thicker Koyo Rad will fit in their without using thin spal fans.

Whether its Koyo or stock rad, I still think the issue is air flow and fans. Not the radiator it self.
Something else is the issue, not the cooling. Without load, your engine is not really creating much heat, since you're not really burning a lot of fuel.

Don't fix the symptom; look for the cause.
