Thats the way to go, but you have to consider that you cant use the oem intake with it.

How did this go from "has anyone tried this pipe?" to "hey, just get a completely different radiator"...

Though I'm curious, get the 6 rad and hoses then bolt 'em straight in? Cost? Links?

Its a slippery slope. You go from a simple hose upgrade, to a radiator, and then an intake.

koyorad makes some reasonably priced evo 6 radiators last I checked.

Well my mishimoto is pretty new, less than 500 miles so won't change for now. I'll most likely go with ets.

What's the point of switching to an Evo 6 radiator? Can you elaborate because that's a new idea to me.

Evo6 has the upper water pipe away from the hot exhaust manifold.

Oh really?? Hmmmm now you are gonna make me do some research on that.. I had the OEM setup, can't do much with that stupid hose in the way and a poor design on location for sure.


Thanks!

If you switch radiator to the like of Evo5/6/7 just make you also have a solution for the fan. That's all.
