I know you stated this was designed for a larger turbo, but I will be doing alot of road racing (stock turbo) will this have the same benefit as the others on the market?

Thanks,

Ryan,

yes this is designed to be an improvement over stock, and to equal or exceed the performance of other rads on the market.. since we come from a roadracing background, we build things for endurance and constant abuse....

as of right now, youd have to a slimline fan.. unless i add bungs to attach the stock radiator fans... but slimline would be lighter...

Looks sooo nice! Amazing! What would you recommend for an upper radiator pipe? Possible metal one in the works?

Looks nice. Whatever upper hose you go with, make sure it has a bend in the middle.

I've seen radiators w/ relocated necks used with just a straight upper hose--terrible idea. The hose gets stretched every time the engine is loaded or unloaded. A recipe for failure...

JKav - I think you mean hump hose that allows for stretching....IC pipes have the same.

Chad - Will the slim fan be plug and play and have stock connectors? That would be awesome.

Yeah plug n play fan would be awesome!

I don't think you want a hump hose, I would think it would cause an air pocket but I could be wrong. You just want a little bend in the hose.

Like this. -^- That was my sad attempt of drawing a hose with a keyboard.
