[QUOTE="MalcolmV8, post: 14027163, member: 8854"] I installed a mishimoto [LIST] [*]Radiator is considerably thicker than stock. [*]Required slotting the ABS unit's mounting bracket and forcing it back for clearance [*]Lots of fighting to get it in. [*]Stock keepers don't work. You must buy the Mishimoto keepers they make. [*]Cooling fan does not sit up against the radiator like it did stock so fan sucks in air from the sides instead of from the radiator. Had to pull fan and install weather stripping all along to make it seal. [*]Had to bend A/C line on the passenger's side for clearance [*]Supercharger coolant bottle no longer fit in stock location. Had to move forward and drill new mounting holes. [*]Had to cut upper supercharger coolant bottle's hose to account for new position. [*]Car runs noticeably hotter than it did with stock radiator. I'm told I need to build baffles all around radiator to force air through the thicker radiator. I also supposedly need to build a bigger than stock air dam below the radiator to try and correct this issue. [/LIST] There's probably more but that's all that comes to mind right now. [/QUOTE]
