Overheating in turbo EG hatch
I have heard of turbo civics having problem with overheating. Anyone have any suggestions or experience with this. I plan on running a higher pressure radiator cap (Spoon) and higher temp thermostat (also Spoon), and maybe a Fluidyne radiator. Anything else I can do tho help this potential problem?
Oh yeah BTW built 1.6 SOHC Vtec w/ Drag III in a 95 hatch

get a jackson racing thermostat for $10. Opens at 160 degrees, get a lower temp thermostat. And yeah the fluidyne would help out a lot...or a CR (???) etc. radiator. maybe a better fan too.

well the spoon stuff he is talkin about is the same stuff. personally i'd rather have spoon then jr. anyway, i would get an oil cooler before a better radiator and remember that intercoolers and oil coolers lower the efficiency of your radiator as well as your ac since they sit in front.

Why dont you get a radiator out of an Accord. Big and powerful, seems like it would work....maybe not enough room though, but it could be modified
