    Cooling performance?

    Hi,

    I don't post much cause I know where 2 source most parts for our cars. But anyways, I am purchasing pieces little by little for my AE101 that I've been owning 4 almost 6 years to go back into it's former glory, while i'm getting another D.D. to work on it. Since I'm going to boost or do an engine swap, I like 2 know where to purchase a genuine Koyo aluminum radiator for our gen 7 corolla? I've seen trust/greddy, obx, arc super micro radiator ($1,000 wow!!!), and other brands sumwhere. I would appreciate it if I can purchase directly or a distributor that can get it.

    Thanx,
    Gerson M.

    i "had " overheating issues with my turbo. i had mounted it about an inch from the radiator and it was boiling the water in the radiator and had to wire my condensor fan to the ignition +. a 92-00 civic aluminum radiator will be coming next week. and maybe a turbo heat sheild. i know pnky 33 has something similar. but you should be fine with the bottom mount exhaust manifold the one that relocates the oil filter.

    well i kept blowin fuzes so i rewired the posotive side and wired a switch on the ground side.
