Howdy boys, I just installed a Fluidyne 38mm radiator in my 99 GSX. Installation was easy (less than 1 hour) I have a 16g upgrade and the fan closest to the turbo outlet pipe would not fit back in b/c the radiator is slightly thicker than the stocker. So I'm running on 1 fan for now. The Fluidyne looks great under the hood and holds more coolant due to larger tubes. I haven't run the car yet except at idle, and won't very much 'till my fan gets in and then I'll be able to comment on perfromance vs the stocker. But so far I'm extremely pleased!

PS- I also used water wetter and will be commenting on it too.

After a few days of testing the Fluidyne is great! I'm without one fan and the temperature doesn't flinch. The water wetter probably helped too. All in all its worth the 425 bucks. I have a comparison pic of the stock radiator vs Fluidyne, if anyone wants to see it, email me.
