Tucked rad is in and working great so far. With the haltech kicking on the fan at 165, we can't even get the car to run hot enough. It's locked so while waiting on the password to change the fan temp we can't do a whole lot, however with the exact same fan temp/ambient temp/etc, we haven't seen the water temp go over 173 while sitting still and hitting anti-lag. With the other radiator and fans, we never saw anything below 192. Now it's apparent that the old radiator was clearly not up to par, but we knew that already. It was about 85 degrees yesterday (same temp when we were seeing 192 w/old rad) but obviously thats not hot enough to do any real testing. Next week is supposed to be in the 90s and hopefully we can push the car a little harder. All of this is with the AC condenser mounted stacked in front of the rad, but without the compressor operational. (have to build slightly longer hoses for new condenser placement) FYI: car is running a Nismo 165 degree t-stat

-derale 13" fan (flows 2150 cfm in puller config. and wired on a 60 amp relay)
-custom shroud sealed to radiator
-23" x 13" x 3" dual pass radiator
-AC Condenser w/integrated drier mounted to the front of the rad
- Prestone 50/50 antifreeze coolant mix, NO water wetter at this time.
