Default Good price on Radiator

I'm thinking about adding a Koyo radiator, what's the average price?

I really like those radiators, more than fluidyne, but they are so expensive. I think the best I saw was $400..

I've seen a Koyo on a friends car, and it is much nicer than the fluidyne sitting under my hood. They are roughly the same price too.

Check out a C&R Radiator, they come with an electril fan from spal, and they are 450 total, These radiators are used in Nascar, so they must be fine for a daily driver honda.

I've got a Koyo...very nice. Polished end tanks, TIG welds everywhere.

I was sold on it when I saw that they use 55mm thick cores, compared to Fluidyne, who uses a 35mm core.

Got mine from www.absoluteradiator.com . I have a Civic though. An Integra radiator is twice the size and probably twice the price.

I got the Fluidyne and I'm happy I did - I don't think my turbo with the MaxRev manifold would clear a 20mm thicker Koyo. Just something to think about.

Price sounds good, I guess I'll to do some measuring with the fal fans. thanks for the info. 55mm is pretty beefy.

The Fluidyne and C&R are nicer because they are smaller than stock lenght wise. The KOYO are same size as stock but thicker. You get better cooling but less room. To me that defeats the purpose of getting the radiator. I need room for a bigger turbo
