okay, how about this.. i have the koyo radiator.. i have the FAL dual fans, guess what.. they fit super snug and super perfect.

sound better? you can thank us all later.

ps: the dual FAL fans are better than the single, in MY opinion. why? because it has more flow ACROSS the radiator, not in one spot. so, when both fans activate get ready for some cooling. the DOWNSIDE to these fans, is, that they are quite powerful and can vibrate the cabin. which, is why i have one running constantly and the other activates with a thermoswitch -- or you can just both put them on thermoswitch, depending on where you live and driving conditions, etc.

respect.. respect.. phase2 rocks, support them.

I know phase2 pwns...i support them every chance i get (nearly half my swap expenses). I think i'll try the dual fans like you have...but how does it actually attach tho the radiator? (the flex-a-lite black magic single 2800cfm fan brackets are the worst thing ive ever used) I live in arizona, so powerful fans are beyond necessary.

Dual Flexalite's with temp sensor, PERFECT

all right all right... i am just trying to help out and get you the infomation that I found out couple months ago. it was hot in socal, my stock radiator leaks and i've always want to be easier to change my belts and adds more bling bling sh*ts, after talked to phase 2 and pick-up the parts. i've never been happeir!!!!!

just sharing my experiences.......




btw, thanks "Honda Ken"

i run a 98 ka in s14 two row aluminum koyo and i prefer stock e-fan and shroud. the only downside to this setup is that the stock e-fan does not have the pulling power to make it past 3 rows consistently (condenser - 1 row, rad - 2 row) and it can tend to heat up a bit when my a/c comes on. but like if i'm on the highway and i'm going 70mph or so, if i go through the 4th/3rd/2nd downshift shenanigans, my greddy water temp gauge says my temp drops 5-7 celsius. tell me thats not the clutch fan owning ka cooling system in the face please.

I'm also pulling through my 3 inch think intercooler. I think I'll go with electic after realizing this...Thanks!

FAL duals dont work with stock radiator?! guess i will be saving my omney for a while, got stock KA with stock radiator. Think its a good idea to get a sr20 radiator and then run a long top radiator hose from the left all the way over to the right? cuz ifi get the duals ill take out the clutch fan so i belieave there will be room to run the long hose but im not sure...
