Question Koyo and NPR

Before I am flamed and told to do a search , which I have already done , please hear me out.I have managed to fit a large NPR intercooler into the nose of my car like a "real" FMIC kit and am now looking at upgrading my radiator , the choice is between the KOYO and the FLUIDYNE , since my motor is now half BP with a T70 (etc,etc ) I would prefer the larger capacity of the KOYO but am a bit concerned about the higher temps some of you experience with your FMIC , namely the GREDDY 3 row crowd , question is since the NPR isnt as thick as the GREDDY would I experience these problems ? , is there anyone using them together without a problem ? , please let me know , thanks.

marcel, here is a pic of a friends car that we put an NPR (large one) in. has the koyo behind it. he does not experience any problems. there are actualy about 4 FD around my town that have them in there. this is the only pic i have though i gotta get some other pics. this one was the first, radiator is not really held up by anything other than the IC pipes and some zipties
