Radiator

Post by sol-lude » Mon Jan 15, 2018 10:33 am

As with most ludes these run double core radiators with dual fans. I was wondering if anyone has a three core half sized aluminium radiator say from a EG and if so have you had any issues with this?

Im purely thinking for a more aesthetic look on the front of the lude.

The second fan is only there for a/c, not for engine cooling.
I wouldn't want to go cutting down radiator size though, personally...

I've had a look into it and have seen a couple of turbo builds with a half sized radiator. Might just stick with full sized but aluminium.
