CSF Intercooler
I am going with BEGis DIY turbo. Looking at the CSF intercooler. I have a 97 and will be installing a KOYO 53mm rad.
Appreciate comments on the construction and effectiveness of the CSF IC |
Link? Not familiar with what that is.

Their story and info sound good. But one never knows. The alternative is to spend more $$$ on BEGi's entire kit.
I think the CSF IC is made in the US. :noob: |
I thought they were out of business years ago?
My radiator is CSF. Gotta love the info on their intercoolers: Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.

Intercooler goes in front or radiator. Bigger radiators get closer to the motor, not to bumper.

Correct. The radiator isn't ever a concern. Here is a photo of the inside.

For comparison's sake, here's a sloppy CX racing intercooler I cut up to change the direction of one of the outlets. Notice how the turbulators arent as consistent, some are all bent up, and the welds are occasionally blobby.

It's a random text that is fake Latin, that is only made to show what a text will look like... Lorem ipsum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |

https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1394749869 Fab9 uses Vibrant cores which should be nicer as can be seen in their pic. While I haven't held a vibrant core in person, I generally trust Vibrant parts. I even wear their Tshirt to work from time to time. |
Having held the Fab9 in person, I can say it is a very nice core. I couldn't notice any defects at all. Wish I had it on my Jetta as well!
Plus the convenience of not having to mess with mounting brackets is incredibly nice. Literally takes a couple minutes to pop on. |

Oh come on that's not bad at all for a chinese core.

You suggested it was Puerto Rican, which is not a language. So I corrected you saying it was Greek. If you had said something like, "I thought it was sanskrit," I would have said, "nope it's latin." Using Lorem ipsum, which I learned you about, is referred to as Greek[ing]. FWIW, I am the GD/UI SME you requested, by trade. You did not win this round. You sound like Hyper taking credit for the coolant reroute after we all schooled him on it. |

I did never suggest anything than my last reply that it is not greek - which it isn't ;)
Cicero though he was Greek was a Roman philosopher. To my humble knowlegde that is what Greek writing looks like https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1394814884 So the Lorem ipsum is written in Latin types and has some words that resemble a text in Latin by Cicero, but only some of the words, not the whole text. So for instance the word Lorem does not exist in Latin. http://lipsum.com Apart from that - I couldn't care less if I am wrong or right, I just wanted to make a funny reply with my last answer... |
your reply sucked.

Don't leave you crazy german! Or at least kill yourself in a better way than that! Go out with a bang! Maybe fill your miata with glitter and crash it using allofit.

Thanks for the tip on the rad.
I am going to get the KOYO 53mm as extra protection for a coolant reroute. I was able to get it significantly below retail.

Have you already ordered the KOYO 53mm radiator? If not I would highly suggest saving a good chunk of change and just ordering a generic aluminium one off ebay for about $120 shipped. It will work just as well along with freeing up money in the budget for other parts.
