I have a wagon that's boosted. The turbo is 1/2" away from the oem radiator, and has dented the **** out of it. It's also a pain in the *** to change the air filter, I have to drain the coolant and take out the rad to have enough room to get to it.

When climbing hills under boost, the temp gauge climbs.

I want to get a halfsize radiator, that still cools really well.

I'm cheap, and not going to get a koyo or fluidyne.

Del sol, Ek, and neon rads are the options. It seems like del sol ones are best.


This is $50 after shipping.
Anybody use this thing? Am I better off finding a oem Del Sol rad?

 

Will that fit a CRX w/ an aftermarket crossmember? Is that basically a radiator from a 92-00 Civic?

I'm asking the questions here, buddy!

Here's what it says in the ad
1992-2000 Honda Civic with 1.5L & 1.6L engines, fits both automatic and manual transmissions. ( 1999 & 2000 Si models will have to get two hose adapters from the local part store so the hoses fit the inlet and outlet connections. )

1993-1998 Honda Del Sol with 1.5L & 1.6L engines, fits both automatic and manual transmissions.

1997-2000 Acura EL with 1.6L engines. ( Canada models only). Fits both automatic and manual transmissions.

2001 Acura EL with 1.7L engines. Fits both automatic and manual transmissions.

Del sol rads are supposed to be shorter than the EG's, so you don't have to cut the underside of your hood to make it fit.

 

If it's the same size as a 92-95 Civic half rad, you'll either have to 1.) hack out your crossmember to have it fit in without hitting the hood or 2.) buy an aftermarket turbular x-member.

 

hum thinking about jumping on this.. what you yall think? ?

 

Search this site because I know there is a half size radiator out there and its dual core and its pretty cheap. I'm gonna look around and if I find it I'll post the thread.
