I've been a little "out of the loop" on all of the latest turbo stuff since I've been tracking my NA Eliminator for the past two years. Hoping you guys can help with a radiator recommendation.

I've been running a Koyo 55mm for the past 8 years and it seems to work fine, however it doesn't work well with my coolant reroute due to the placement of the water inlet. I've routed the hose from the back of the motor in kind of a goofy way to accommodate; I'd like to do something better.

The car is an occasional HPDE car that also sees some street usage. It has an FMII turbo kit at around 11psi/ 225hp. I live in Atlanta, so it gets hot - ambient temps can be 90-100 in the summer.

Does anybody have direct experience with moving from a Koyo to either the 949 Supermiata Crossflow or the Trackspeed Dual Core? I'm leaning towards the 949, as it sounds like Emilio's testing indicates it is equally as effective as the Koyo. The TSE is more capable/ more expensive/ and probably overkill for my needs?

Any input is appreciated.

 

Was in the exact same position with my Mishimoto and reroute and I'm also running a FMII. Went with the Supermiata/949 radiator and am very happy with it!

 

TSE and never look back.

 

You can't go wrong with the TSE or Supermiata both are great products

 

Just use this hose...

 

There's nowhere near that much room in the NA. The radiator inlet is much closer to the throttle body.

Ordered the Supermiata radiator. Thanks guys.

 

For anybody having the issue of the radiator inlet being blocked by IC piping, I'm using a Dayco 71519 and cutting off the excess.
