Potential Cooling Problems?
I'm still yet to be tuned and see if there is going to be cooling problems but I'd like to see some opinions here to know what I could be up against.
I live in Arizona so we push 115+ degrees in the Summer and I kept A/C and P/S so my engine bay is quite cramped.
To start here's my setup in my 00 Si...
Stock B16A2
Block bored .20 over
SRP 9.1:1 Pistons
Eagle H Beam rods
All seals and gaskets are OEM Honda.
GSR Cams
Megan Cam Gears
Clutch Masters Stage 3
Turbonetics t3/t4 .57 trim .63 a/r
Full Race A/C Ramhorn
38mm Tial Wastegate 10 PSI spring
Greddy Bov
RC 550cc injectors
3” Full Race Downpipe
3” Thermal Research and Development Exhaust
Drag i/c 6.5” height
Hondata S300
13" Puller Spal Radiator Fan
13" Puller Spal Condensor Fan
Stock Radiator
We put these fans and they are absolutely the biggest we could fit inside and they each push 1710 cfms.
I'm just curious of your thoughts?

you upgrade to a high capacity radiator yet? something like a koyo all aluminium specific to your car has a higher fluid capacity than stock. one more thing that can help.
Well were hoping with getting away with the stock radiators. To fit the Full-Race ramhorn manifold with the new fans we had to fabricate two mounts that took quite a bit of time to fit and look nice. So if we have to go to new radiators we surely will but at this point were hoping we don't have to.
I will keep that in mind if/when I do have cooling issues... thanks for the advice.

You should be just fine with those Spal fans. Mine never tips over 190* with one spal fan, here in the carolina's in upper 90* heat with high humidity. The heat seem's to "bake" you out west, here in the south it's like "frying" you.
