Message Even driving around, its the same as stock one. Do you really think more fins would make a 30% difference. Just ask Fred how the Nismo one sucks! I am getting the Howe installed along with the Nismo thermostat. You should do the same to keep your beast cool especially where you live. Also, start leaning out your car on the dyno because there is much more power to be made from your awesome setup. 11.5 is too conservative. I can only imagine how much power you will make on the bottle with an air fuel ratio of 12.5. Kevin from PrimeSpeed was talking to a couple of guys that run their cars hard at the speedvision races and they told him theyare running a ration of 13.0 all day long with no problems but I would be scared of that ratio especially with big power like us. Good Luck!

ps: Check your E-Mail.

: I wish I had taken some baseline readings with my stock radiator before I put in my Nismo one... has anyone done this before?
