Default Aluminum radiator question...

Do the CSF, Koyo and FM radiators work with the factory NA shroud and fans?

Either spend coin on a TSE/949 Crossflow, or get the cheapest ebay aluminum radiator possible. I have been using them for year without issues.

I agree with shuiend.

We successfully ran a cheap ebay style "race" ali radiator for the past few years but upgraded to 949 crossflow recently for a bit of headroom.

Third'd. I went for the $99 alu jam from Good-Win simply cause it comes with a 10 year warranty, and wasn't much more than the comparable ebay unit. Fitment was decent, little bit of finesse required, but cools well. Probably wouldn't trust the cheapo rad cap though, esp when a Stant one is $8 from Advance.
