I am lookin into radiators and found that Koyo and Fluidyne seem to be the most famous ones. I am wondering which one is better and expereince with them.

I'd say you're probably not going to notice a difference between the 2, although I heard somewhere (I think) that the Koyo isn't a direct bolt in, you have to do some small mod or make a bracket or something. Not positive on that though, but I do know the Fluidyne bolts right in (I have it)

They're both excellent units but the koyo has near a 20mm core thickness advantage on the fluidyne i believe which is why I choose koyo. the only mod you need to do to make the koyo fit is use the stock radiator side mounts and it comes with a fan shroud spacer kit.

Trying searching as well, theres about 4 threads out there reviewing each. I found the Koyo to be the more popular of the two.

I heard that Griffin rads are just as good as Fluidynes. eVilrotor I believe has a Griffin, try asking him on what he thinks about it.

what about K2RD?
They claim biggest that will fit in stock position, and requires relocation of battery, so that seems pretty damn big.
