There are a lot of applications out there for FDs, ive never personally used megan rads or any of their stuff. I would recommend Koyo rads, i know most if not alot of fd owners use it. Ive had mine and i have been happy so far. Do your research and how you want to use ur car, goodluck

I have a Koyo rad and I am quite happy with it. Fluidyne seems to be a very nice unit too but more expensive (they do a lot of race stuff).
If you are driven by the price Koyo is a very good and popular option among FD owners.
If you're improving the water cooling system I'd add some silicon rad hoses, aftermarket AST and the FC thermoswitch. After that (if not already done) your cooling system should be a lot healthier.
Good luck.

something to consider.. look into a mishimoto rad. Their stock mount is about the same size/
thickness as a koyo race rad, at a fraction of the price. The only thing that it doesn't have is the fitting for the AST. Having said that, I got mine for $350 shipped, taxes in, and included in that price, the rotary shop i use is welding an AST fitting on to it.
it's a gorgeous polished aluminum piece, and it should just bolt up. I'll have more information after I get it in the car, but comparing it side by side with a koyo, it seems to be a more susbstantial piece than the standard direct fit koyo.
Just a thought
