What IC for t-78 and koyo rad?

I am sure a question like this has been asked but I couldn't find it...
I am in stalling my t-78 right now, and I have a koyo radiator. I am selling my SMIC and looking for a FMIC.
I don't know how to determine what I want to get.
I was looking at the Greddy 2row and 3row...more towards a 3 row for cooling capacity.
Other info about the car which may help determine an FMIC,
It will be running 1600cc secondarys and 720cc primarys, PFC, and I am looking for a fuel pump setup at the moment.
I would like to try to run 10-15 psi in the lower setting, and 15-20 psi in the highter setting (Profec B).
I don't mind a little cutting if it is worth it (cooling capacity wise).
Will these FMIC work with the Koyo, I wasn't sure because the Koyo is rather thick.
Thanks a head of time
-Dave

I have a greddy 3 row, works fine for me. I would also look at the apexi for single turbo. the delta fins look bad *** on the apex. Plus on the greddy you will have to trim the stock bumper and it looks like **** when your done. The apex is alot easier to install. b

Apex looks cool, but doesn't the Greddy have the appropriate piping for the t-78?

yeah. i used it w/ the GT35/40.
i used a 90* elbo to make it fit. i think the t78 you need a 120* elbo??? i dont have the stock bumper and it looks great installed. as long as you do it right and take your time.

How long is that IC?
I am looking at trading rbrtech for his greddy 3row, but it doesn't look that long.
And he said he is for the stock twins...
This is what he is selling...is this the right IC?

Does the old style fit well?
He wanted to trade his IC (no pipes or anything) for my Medium SMIC with pipes couplers, and clamps...
