Punishment Racing Aluminum Radiator W/ Slim Fans

[DSM_6SL2 Power]

I was looking at this, and I saw how cheap it is. I was wondering if anyone has ever bought it and if it is a direct bolt on. What about the wiring for the fans, do they just plug in?

Im going to need some slim fans eventually, so this looked very interesting to me.

Radiator should be a direct bolt on, however slim fans usually require manual wiring, not a direct bolt on. From the pics though it looks to have the flanges to bolt directly up, either way they will work. Let me know if you but them and how good the quality is because I am looking to buy a similar package.

Not a bad price at all. The koyo is $300 without the fans.

I paid 400 for my fluidyne also no fans, but it should be a direct drop in. From what I experienced with the fan it shuld just be to wires you splice not hard at all. Punishment is a great vendor and I've been happy with what I got from them

I just bought a Mishimoto from JNZ Tuning and it came with similar fans. I paid $300 and wiring up the fans is really easy! Great price I almost bought those!

I think im going to ask punishment about the wiring. This or a fmic is my next buy. Hopefully I can get one of these soon and let you guys know how it is.

This kit is a direct fit but you do have to wire in the slim fans.

I just bought one of these today! Ill let everyone know how it goes in about a week or so when i recieve it. For the price and seeing as punishment is selling it I wouldnt imagine anything less the great.

I already had 2 spal fans thought but again for the price I had to. Ill just sell the old ones seeing as theyre new

So here it is.. Welds seem good.. overall im happy

Very quick shipping and good packaging of materials. I threw a pic of one of the fans in for kicks.. I think Ill keep my spal's ### theyre rated a bit higher CFM wise.

 

[Burnett03]

is it thicker than the stocker?

 

[98evoIIIpwr]

Roughly the same.. Welcome! will give you exact specs on it. Im not sure what the stock thickness is or I would answer that question. But again, with my eye it looks close.

Post a picture when it is installed.

i emailed them about the setup earlier and yes you have to wire it yourself no plug and play

 

[1992awdlaser]

Its easy enough to wire anyway.

 

[98evoIIIpwr]

Yup, definetly have to wire them in. The connector on the fans is a 3 pronged thingy...Good thing is they do come with mounting hardware though.. for the fan to radiator if that was too vague

My 125 dollar spal's didnt even do that

Just to let everyone know, aluminum is a superior metal when it comes to heat transfer, so even if its the same size as stock, you should see a drop in temps.

Lately I've been in the 206-215 *F(not bad at all) so maybe once i get extra cash to throw around i'll think about picking one of these up.

The stock radiator on a 2g has 2" end tanks, but the core is only 1" thick. The Punishment core is 2" thick. That's ½" thicker than the Fluidyne, (38mm=1.4971999") and it's a steal with 2 fans. I'm considering getting one.

 

[AWD_DSM08]

im in the same boat right now thinking about this or a fluidyne idk

 

[clipse4u2c]

I'm pretty sure i'm going to be buying this as well!

 

[AWD_DSM08]

Anyone else running one of these?

 

[95GSXCO]

I just got mine in the mail 3 days ago very nice rad. Still waiting on a timming part so as soon as i get that i will install it and take pics. You can't go wrong for the price and like everyone said very good company so iam not planning on having any problems with it

 

[TSIMonsteR]

does punisment make them? or are they ebay units like their budget manifolds?

 

[AWD_DSM08]

I went ahead last night and bought there 2g kit.

 

[wangboy925]

Anyone have pics of this installed? And any reviews with this thing on?
