Default Fluidyne or C&R??

Is one any better than the other?? I am about to put a civic style radiator into my integra since I am getting rid of my AC and make more room for my new turbo setup.

get whichever one is cheaper. Both are very good, but I've heard that the Fluidyne is kinda tough to get right now b/c they had a fire in their factory or something.

both are very good. Both are very well made. Its a good choice no matter which way you look at it. I guess next step is which one is cheaper. I sell C&R's for 420.

Not true. I ordered a Fluidyne from Absoluteradiator.com last Friday, arrived on Wednesday, installed on Saturday.

The Integra radiator is only $315 from them and installs really easily. You would probably have enough room for the turbo. There are no mounting brackets for the A/C fan, but you are getting rid of the A/C, so that wouldn't matter. I'm just going to see if it overheats at all without the fan.

it's 420 with the fan right? Is the spal fan that comes with the C&R better than the FAL fans? Wat are the CFM ratings for each fan?

I just got my C&R from Import Auto Salvage for $439 w/one SPAL fan installed. Overall the RAD looks awesome and I only had to trim the L-bracket or the fan mount a little since it was too close to my turbine.
