Default Will a turbo, Fluidyne radiator, and FAL fans fit?

Just like the topis says, I want to turbo my teg and I have a Fluidyne radiator and some FAL fans installed. The space is decreased with the radiator and increased with the fans. Will the whole thing fit? Anyone seen or have this setup?

I have heard it will fit, tightly. I have the fluidyne rad., and had a turbo on my LS once, it was definitely a tight squeeze. I don't think I could've fit FAL fans. I ended up mounting my stock fan on the front of the rad. But i did have a dent rad support, so that may have had something to do with it.

Are you talking about the full width rad or the half "civic style" radiator?

Full width. If you know of a manufacturer that makes a good full width (but not as thick) radiator, lemmi know.

i have an ls with the inline pro, sc61, and the fluidyne. there wasn't enough room for the stock ac condenser fan. so i'm using just the ac condenser fan on the passenger side of the radiator. i couldn't find a good way to mount on the other side of the radiator, so i'm just using the one. it seems to be working fine, no overheating problems at all. but i don't know how is will affect the ac condenser. anyone know?

you aren't running a big enough turbo if it does.

Pros and cons of running full length Integra rad with 1 fan vs half length civic style rad with 1 fan. Is dual core really just as effective as single core, double width?

Is there enough room in front of the radiator to make the FAL's pushers with the A/C still there?
