I've also been talking to the guys over at Griffin Radiator about doing a custom rad that is designed 100% for an FF Evo with high horsepower in mind. I know the koyo's seem to work pretty well for everyone but I'm just exploring other options. I'm going to have one built for my own car and if all goes well, I'll see what we can do about getting a bunch made if the price is affordable. From what they told me, It will be a little more than a koyo, but less than the Fluidyne.

Yeah you nailed it. Cooling is sufficient, but I'm not risking anything in the long run. Hopefully I can save some funds to replace it in the near future

I have one of these kits from Driven Fabrication and wow is all I can say and glad my AC is now back.

Kit fits like a lego and pretty much hassle free to install.
