Best Radiator For boost?

Mishi is the only thing that fixed mine too…that stage 2 intercooler is just a big airflow blocker

Is this Mishimoto radiator a direct drop in or modifications necessary?

Drop in. You may need to tweak it a little bit to get the bolts for the fans etc to line up.

Stock PP radiator here. Big air to water IC up front and working AC. Also have Ford Performance water pump and 170 stat. Street duty and drag racing is no issue, in any temp.

Does that make radiators work better or worse? Haha

High and low coolant temps of datalogs, stock rad/therm, then after changing to a 170 thermostat, and then after adding the Mishimoto radiator

What was the outside air temperature during these logs ?

I have a procharger. Would the procharger be in the way of a larger radiator ? That’s my issue. Anyone running a larger radiator with a procharger ?

Does anyone know if there is a way to have my fans turn on without contacting Lund for a revision? I have an RTD device.

All different. Each line is a log so you can see the general trend.

Changing the thermostat removes the floor of 190 degrees and then after the radiator the car basically never gets to 195 degrees

yep…their stage 2 cooler was enough of an airflow restrictor to throw me into limp mode on a 104* day, and a quick highway pull

No interest in racing people on 104 degree days

What cooling upgrades helped with the issue?

Thanks for posting this.

Fan algorithim same throughout, I assume?
