I noticed that both manufactures offer multi-pass!!! how much of a temp rang in difference did you guys notice between single pass and multi-pass radiator.
or are they just charge more for the multi-pass and we really don't need it for daily driving here in southern California.
I noticed that with my current oem with a little royal-P water wetter, my temp never exceeds over 109 on HOT DAY!!!

Sounds like you have a problem with your coolant system. Even with a FMIC, my coolant temps only got that high when flogging the car at Buttonwillow.
Some of the better rads for use with a SMIC are the Fluidyne's and AWR / Mazdacomp rad. Koyo usually causes fitment issues with a SMIC.
I posted links to places to buy both on the radiator thread from last week.

I'm all about the fluidyne's. A lot of my friends have complained about the Koyo's being just a little to thick and having bad airflow. Keep in mind that I'm talking about applications with FMICs. Both of my local shops Rotary Performance and Gotham Racing back this up agreeing that the Fluidyne is the best bet.
My application has a Greddy FMIC and a fluidyne rad with the A/C condenser between them and my temps are 95-96 in traffic and 89-91 while cruising on the highway.

anything goes over 98 and i shut the car down.
Lucky7racing has a nice radiator you can get, SD. It runs in the 160.00 range -- they're up in Duarte, CA. Everything fits well except the fuse box on the front ... easily re-located.
