Well I am trying to build a very low budget EG hatch right now. I bought a shell and have nothing in the engine bay. Right now I just got my hands on a B16 out of a 97 Del Sol Vtec and am trying to do research into what I need for the swap. I have been looking at radiators (yes I searched on HT) and everyone is saying Fluidyne and all the expensive names. Anyone know what is the cheapast way I can go with the ability to possibly turbo the car in the future? This is going to be a daily driven street car for school and work so please let me know what I can do to keep costs down.

Don't get fluidyne go to autozone a pick up del sol dual core radaitor it will go right in. $100.

 

Thanks, so basically the radiator that comes with the Del Sol will work fine with the possibility of a minor turbo in the car. Thanks for the info, I was thinking using that or been seeing a lot on Ebay for the B16 for around $85 but I think I would trust autozone more

 

Listen to that guy. Dol Sol dual core is the way to go. You can find them as little as $50 in the classifieds sometimes. If not head to Auto Zone. Good luck.

 

if u dont mind butter welds, u could try this one. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=765559 my friend has one of these. i have a fluidyne. works the same just mines is prettier.

 

definately the dual core del sol radiator. itll fit in perfectly with your stock radiator mounting and would be fine with boost

 

You will not need more than a dual core del sol for some time. Anyting more, you will be wasting your money.

 

how about any teg radiator wont that fit too?

from looking at them I dont believe the teg radiators will bolt in. You might be able to make some custom mounts and hoses and the like, but not a direct bolt in.

 

you would have to chop off your radiator and ac condensor mounts and reweld some new mounts for the radiator and cut the tabs on the ac condensor to fit infront of the radiator.

 

KOYO is a good radaitor if u have the money
