Radiator Setup
I am looking for a good radiator setup which will allow enough clearance for a large frame turbo. Would like to run a full size radiator. What is every else doing?

What turbo manifold? Top mount, bottom mount, log, equal length?

I have not made the mani yet just want clearance it will be equal length. May have to go with a sidewinder style or top mount EQ if I can fit it.

I have a koyo in my B14 with dual slim fans, one pulling and one pushing, mounted on each side of the radiator.

Only running a t28 for now, but this is the setup I will be sticking with when going to a larger turbo. Should fit a top mount turbo with a log mani with no issues.

All you need with it is a Nismo thermostat and you should be good to go. Ideal setup...

i ran a precision sc6262 (big turbo in my eyes) and had no problems with the clearance on a stock radiator and even a nx radiator. To be honest our full size radiators are about the same as the half size radiators and allow a lot more options for bigger turbos.

Where were your fans at?

pushers of course wouldnt have it any other way pointless to run them back there cluttering the bay and giving you less space. Never once had a problem with overheating

I have a koyo and a asp el vet manifold. its a tight fit and does require the radiator support to be modified if you want to work on things with out pulling the motor.
