Hey guys my radiator just took a leak all over my evo, and im looking into a cbrd radiator. i've read a few reviews on this product but would like to get some more reviews and info on them. i've also heard of people running these with no fan in mild weather conditions?? true or no? I know CBRD makes AMAZING products i just wanna make sure its worth the money before i shell it out! thanks again!!
Thoughts opinions comments and yes I have searched!

 

I wouldn't risk it without a radiator fan. I personally have a Mishimoto and its great! but I never heard of CBRD

 

i run the CBRD radiator and ive have had ZERO issues.

 

You have never heard of CBRD???

 

cbrd's rad is amazing.

 

.. i too was like.. uh.. wtf?

BR? AMS? AWD? STM? MAP?

 

CBRD probably makes some of the best radiators on the market. You can't go wrong with them.

 

I was thinking about doing this to my setup, not using a fan altogether and just using the rad. The rad is very efficient but it's not going to hold up in the summertime without a fan. I spoke with Chad about not using a fan and he said it wasn't a good idea. In the winter, my fan has yet to come on, but the temps have gotten up there with some spirited driving. I would not risk it myself. Is there a particular reason why you are not choosing a fan? The fan itself weighs very little. The stock fan is heavy because it has that metal enclosure. The CBRD fans have a plastic enclosure so it's light weight.

 

The whole no fan deal was just sumthing i had heard, I was just looking for some input on this! thanks for your help!

 

For what its worth I don't run a fan on my stock radiator and my car never gets hot in the summer time while sitting in traffic..

 

blaspemy!!!

 

lol!

 

CBRD radiators are top of the line. They now have a mini also

 

ahahahah, that made me laugh!

Im happy to see not everyone has heard of us, it means we have more work to do

if you need any specific information... we aren't just a "single solution" provider for evo cooling...

we have the following:

oem like fitment with straight upper hose in 3 different combinations (depending on your needs and turbo application)

drop in double pass road racing radiators (very expensive and not recommended for street use)

half width radiators for forward facing kits

half width radiators for ultra lightweight autox use

and some other bits

cheers

cb

 

thanks for the info! i went ahead and i got the version 2 of this amazing product and i cant wait untill it comes in! thanks again!
