3rd Gen Mods

[Rotorhog]

Hey, some of you guys who have more 3rd gen experience than myself could offer up some comments or advice on a couple of issues.

First, anyone have any experience in removing the stock radiator and upgrading to a Fluidyne or Koyo? I'm interested in a dual row or something on those lines to increase cooling margin and add a little more coolant volumn in the system. Anyone aware of any known fit issues? I don't want to do any cutting ,etc.

Also, any thoughts on removing the stock twin turbo and replacing it with a new single turbo? The prices on the singles were eye opening to me!

Later guys.

I've got a Koyo on mine, and it fits nice and snug. As for the twins, I couldn't part with them. No lag, and they boost beautifully.

I'm leaning towards the j spec twin if I do have to replace my originals. Did your Koyo go in without mods / cutting making it fit? I've been told the twin row Fluidyne fits up with no cutting etc.

[Mr.President]

The Koyo is good with placement, I originally bought a Fluidyne, but Fedex destroyed it by the time it made it to my home.

Well I did put the Koyo N Flow radiator in, had to use 'slim' fans with it. Put new silicone radiator hoses in. Striped out the old factory vac tubes and installed some silicone tube that will not pop off at all, got that from Tri-Point Engineering in Cali. Also ditched the facory exhaust header for a SS without the precat. Installed a cold air system (from Petit) ditched the air pump. Nice result after all of that!

nice !
