Hello all. I am looking for some advice. I was looking into some of the Mishimoto Radiators and noticed they have some different kits with options.

1. Is the standard Radiator with 2 12" fans http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MISHI...spagenameZWDVW

2. Standard Radiator with one 14 inch fan. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MISHI...spagenameZWDVW

3. Standard Mishimoto Radiator with shroud and 2 10 inch fans http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mishi...spagenameZWDVW
Here is another link to the kit

The plan is to get the fan options to work well on an 03 OZ Rally. I know the fans mount differently on an evo. I am looking for the best option and would cool the best. Which would you recommend? 2 12 inch fans, 2 10 inch fans with shroud, 14 inch fan?

 

well i know that the mishismoto radiator and twin fan kit wont work together on the evo8 but it might work on the oz....and idk if the bigger single fan will work with the mishismoto radiator and stock turbo

 

Moved to Lancer Forum...was in Evo's

 

I know the radiator bolts right up with no problems, but I know the fans on the evo are different. If I get either one with the two fans, I can just wire them right up. I just don't know which setup is best, 10 inch with shroud, or 14 inch without shroud. Does the shroud really do anything. Does anyone have either setup?

 

Is there a significant gain or benefit when using a better radiator? Are these things are only good for boosted applications?

 

ok here is the issue with going to a evo raditor if you are gonna boost your car your gonna loose a lot of room in between the turbo and the radiator for engine movement. the evo radiator is almost 2" thick while the lancer raditor is only 5/8" thick. what i am gonna be using for my setup is the mishimoto evo 8 fan shroud kit. ill keep you posted on how it works. but really its all personal preference on what you want to use for a fan setup you can use one pusher and that will be sufficient. i was originally using one fan and it was keeping the car right at 180 deg. but it took up alot of room. thats the only issue is room. but ill let you know how the shroud works.

 

Thanks for the advise. I look forward to hearing back. I think whatever setup I have, I'm going to get an extra fan off an evo for going to the track/strip and wire it to turn on and off for cooling when the car is off. I'll be getting the fan that sits in front of the radiator.
