I have a SC61, I have a Koyo 1/2 radiator that fits with the crossmember we made (basiclly a full-race). I'm swapping engines right now so I can't take any pics, I'll dig through what I have and see what pics I have from mock up. There should be more to go along with the single pic that is in my sig.

It is a VERY tight fit. I dont see how I could go with any bigger of a turbo housing. I'm already partially inside the headlight housing. The hardest part was finding a place for the wastegate. All the pics you see online are typically EG and EK chasis, you lose alot of room trying to do this in a CRX. It's a battle trying to get everything to fit.

Sorry no pics of the radiator installed, it only came out of the box once during mock up. Here's the rest of the pics I have right now.

Yep that's the idea, my friend works as a fiberglasser making parts for airplanes, so I dropped off a stock headlight with him and he's going to make me bolt on inlet to run at the track. Thanks for the compliments, I need them to get finished up with the build and make it to St. Louis NOPI.
