koyo radiator?

does anybody know if there are any fitment issues that I would have if I wanted to install a koyo with a greddy SMIC? I want to increase cooling but idk if the fitments would interfear with the two. Also my PFC is already tuned and I know a radiator is not a performance upgrade but would I have to get it re-tuned if I installed the koyo? thanks guys

there should not be any fitmet issues if u installed the koyo what a greddy SMIC.

your PFC will also not need to be retuned when u install the koyo.

I heard the Koyo Radiator you will have to make fitting to make it fit, but the Fludyne will fit perfectly.

Too bad the Koyo is better and the fitment issues aren't even a big deal.

Why would you need to tune your power FC for a radiator. It doesnt really do anything except flow liquid through it cooling it in the process. Please enlighten me.

The stock radiator should go in the same spot that it was with the t78. Depending on your intercooler, you may need to change its position. I put the rx7fashion apexi intercooler in mine and i mounted my koyo in the same spot that the stock radiator, i dont recall any real issues.

thank you fastcarfreak it helps knowing that it mounts in the stock location, also I was just asking about the PFC because the question poped into my head when writing this and thought I might as well ask even though I was pretty sure I wouldn't have to re-tune the car. Can't hurt to ask right

the koyo is a little bigger so you may have to rotate your brackets to bolt it up, i think that was the only problem. Wasnt really a problem though. good luck.
