Ugh, I'm still confused as to which one to buy. I'd go with the Koyo, but it doesn't already have a trans cooler on it, like stock and PWR. I do have an aftermarket trans cooler right now, but it would also help even more with the other trans cooler on the radiator. Can someone give me some insight to this? Do I need the trans cooler on the radiator? If not maybe I'll just go with the big Koyo.

XKR - what size of Koyo do you have? Sorry, I really don't know **** about radiators lol...thanks for the help guys.

 

I have the thick Koyo and a B&M tranny cooler with built in fan. It was kind of a b*tch to fit. Works great though

 

My stock one has been working just fine.

 

I have the large AMS one. It is as large as the thick Koyo (I think). I had to make minor mods to get it in but it works.

It's not the best one on the market but the GB price was $299 shipped!

 

I just wet myself....



That is beautiful!!!!

 

Only if someone can put up a step by step installation for the koyo....

 

dude its simple... just look at the koyo radiator when u get it and u will see what connects to what. I just did the koyo this weekend and its simple to install.

If u are running a vortech sc this will NOT fit with the stock fans/ shroud. It was a b!tch to try to get it to fit and not matter how much I cut the fan shroud to get by the blower and ic pipping, the stock fan is hitting the pipping.

Therefore, if anyone is vortech and wants the Koyo (might as well get the FULL size bc the small size wont fit either), the stock fans/shrouds will not fit so buy a dual flex o lite fan OR a huge 16" single puller fan and a 10" pusher fan in front of the driverside AC condenser.

 

I am using the racing series model... 56mm Koyo Radiator R Series. Sharif said that the smaller one is an easy fit...but the one I use takes some custom work to fit with the custom fan and shroud.

 

From what I understand new radiators dont do that much??

Though I put a new 5at cooler on...

 

Are u kidding??? Look at the size of the thickness of the stock rad vs. the aftermarket rads and tell me u dont see a difference? U are truly mistaken.

 

Once again "ARE YOU CRAZY ". You are sadly mistaken if you think upgraded thicker rads dont do anything. Let me run your car around the track for a few laps and see if i cant break some temp records

I ran my car hard before I went FI...and even then the temps could not stay down. After I went FI...I ran the car 29 laps the first minute i got back to town.....I burned my brakes out trying to get the temp to rise.

If you are not FI and dont track the car.....(IMO) stay with the stock ones.

 

I got the 36mm Koyo, installing it with a Procharger, i hope its easy as it sounds, anyone know if i need a new fan? I hope not..

 

let me know how it goes man...I have the procharger installed on my car and I am considering switching.....please let me know.

 

Ive got the PWR and GTM fan shroud.

 

Koyo is great just needs modding
