Okay, for those of you with a SR installed and a FMIC... do you have any cooling probs with the stock radiator?  I've noticed quite a few people install the Koyo aluminum radiator and/or electric fans, while others do not...

Is this just a safeguard and one more mod to increase how far you can boost?  Or would you have overheating problems with the stock radiator (since a FMIC will block a good portion of it's direct air contact).  I'm talking about boost range just slightly above stock, maybe 9-12 range.  Thanks guys.
