koyo vs. fluidyne

I know this has prolly been posted before, but.... I just want to know you guys opinions on which is better based on ease of install and cooling. I know the koyo is cheaper but I have heard it doesnt fit as well. Let me know. Thanks!

I need a radiator that fits as close to stock as possible due to my intercooler setup, so I'm thinkin it will have to be fluidyne.

I had to take the Dremel to the fan shroud in order to be able to fit it to my Fluidyne Radiator. Less than 5 minutes of work, but not exactly drop in.

I am very happy with it otherwise.

Fitment with the Koyo is the only thing I';ve ever heard bad about it. I've got a fluidyne in my basement waiting for me to tackle the FMIC, figured I'd do them both at the same time.

fluidyne

the fan shroud will fit, it just takes some wiggling(although some may be weded different than others). i installed the koyo then sold it for the fluidyne. the fluidyne has the brackets already welded and everything. i would strongly recommend the fluidyne.

Here is a thread about a Koyo install:

Basically, if installation ease is your concern, get the Fluidyne.
