greddy FMIC 2-row and stock radiator
does any one see any water temp problems in using the FMIC and stock rad? the rad. does stay mounted in the stock location. i will be replacing it but i have seen single turbo people using the stock red. still. i know copper is better than aluminum , but that the stock rad is thin. my supporting mods are apexi intake, aexi gt spec exhaust, greddy bov, water and boost gauge, turbonetics boost controller. , stock boost seq. set up...
any advice is helpful.
thanks

I believe with the greddy 2 row, you have to reposition the rad. I know i did. No water temp problems.
Obviously in hot weather along with stop and go will increase water temp but nothing to extreme that will make you go back to a smic. Now if you track the car, that might be an issue. If you're a drag guy, this might be to your advantage.
Lots of things to consider before you do it.
Most people do it for cosmetics. Some dont. Etc
