Fluidyne Radiator and FAL (flex-a-lite) Fan
I plan on building a B18a turbo, hopefully around 300-350whp at up to 9000 RPMs and throwing it into an 96-98 hatch. I was wondering if A fluidyne radiator with the single blade FAL electric slim fan for the civic would be good enough to cool my engine or should I go with an integra radiator and the dual blade FAL electric fan. From what i've read, the difference between the civic single fan and the integra dual fan is 2000cfm and 2500cfm respectively. Fluidyne doesn't really offer much info on there site other than saying that their fans cool 20-25% better. Also, how will fitment be if I were to choose the bigger integra radiator.
Feedback will be appreciated.

I use a civic fluidyne radiator w/ the stock fan on my integra and i've never had a cooling problem.

Re: Fluidyne Radiator and FAL (ladysman)
might not actually be that high, more than likely goin with crower 402t cams and they say theyre good for 8250+, im just gonna try and push it as high as i can, i say 9000 cuz i want to let it be known that im gonna be up there in revs, in case that might influence your responses

The single radiator with single fan will be enough, a local guy uses a Fluidyne with a single fan on his 600+ WHP Street car .
