What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[80FoxCoupe]

Thinking about pulling the trigger on a mishimoto radiator, tell me not too.
upgrading from base (non performance pack radiator) Ecoboost.

worthless for a daily driver? will it make it run worst by having to cold of temps?

Do you really want something on your Ford Mustang that says "mishimoto"?? Larger radiator wont make it run any cooler. Save the $$ for something else.

ah I thought map updates was free, that's crummy. it would be something I did every 5 years or so, my iPhone maps is perfect imo. I really debated on if I wanted nav and such, but iOS 14 kills the sync 3/iOS integration.

I have the nav because I use it when I am in areas of poor cell service(which is a lot). My android and google maps are worlds better

Mishimoto makes a quality product. I wouldn't swap radiators out unless you're having cooling issues. That said, my 750hp lightning has Mishimoto parts on it...

Really, very interesting, BRB, got to grab the bong, to understand the connection.

He's talking about the song that was playing in your photo ... no bong required, lol.

The cooling system thermostat will determine what temp the cooling system operates at, regardless of how much more effective the radiator is. A bigger radiator will ensure temps stay within the thermostat temperature if the engine is pushed harder. If you're not overheating with normal street driving then no use upgrading.

Just when I romp on it pretty hard in summer the digital guage will rise to yellow temperature, but goes back to green shortly. I heard that isn’t real temperature though as there’s no real oil temperature guage? I could be wrong

I would add/upgrade the oil cooler before the radiator if its oil temp that's getting into the yellow. If water temp is not high, a bigger radiator might have little impact on oil temp.

How hard is it to add oil coolers? Reputable brands? I have a manual if that matters

My radiator is a baby one.... but one more option
Levittown gave me a great price of 275 to me for the ford perf pack radiator That, would be a cheap upgrade. It appears to be about a half inch wider, but the charts mishimoto shows quite a bit cooling increase, 30% more.

mishimoto posted this chart of my ecoboost radiators

they also posted photos of both of them, one w orange caps on hose connections is performance pack

Black caps are mishimoto

1/2 thicker is a lot of surface area, 30% is good, nice upgrade.

Half an inch thicker, I guess all else the same

my Rad it says 1 inch, it says the pp is 1.44 inch But for less than 300, that could be a swap in 1 hour and done

Getting ready to install the FP power pack II on my car.

L & H likely the same, it must be really. Otherwise your building brackets.
