Default Koyo radiator and Flex-A-Lite fans

Recently turboed my spec v. I love it. When it's time to buy another car, I will base my decision of make and model based on the availability of Turbonetics kits. Thank you to Turbonetics support. Kick asss.

My question: How much different do Koyo radiator and Flex-a-Lite fans in combination have over stock setup?

Thank you

Thank you for the kind words. As for the Flex-a-Lite fans and Koyo radiator, what kind of info are you looking for specifically? There should be a rather significant increase and thermal transfer efficiency on the Koyo core along with increased coolant capacity. Additionally the upgraded fans will flow more CFM across the core when they are on so cool down times should improve as well. I hope that is the info you were looking for...

I just ordered a Flex-a-Lite 220 dual fans from summitracing. I will it with the stock radiator for now. From what I heard, the Spec V stock radiator is decent.
I hate how stock fans switch on and off at short interval. The Flex-a-Lite will stay on when the car is on, and it offers higher CFM.

Well rather then have the fans run all the time you could also get yourself the HKS Fan Controller which will let you start the fans at whatever temp you want and shows you the actual temp of the coolant and can even run a water sprayer for you... http://hksusa.com/products/?id=1697&rsku=5709
