You heard wrong. The stock cooling system works great. I've done track days in 105+ degree heat and not a worry in the world.

If you are N/A, not anything to be gained over OEM, except bling . No need to replace unless your OEM is broken.
and if anything, it weights more and will take lil extra fluid... lol

i 2nd koyo tho, i love it

My understand is the welds on the Mishimoto are not as nice as on the Koyo, but I'm sure it does the job just fine. I've had my Koyo for 4+ years now and it has worked flawless. Keeps the coolant cool even without any fans.
x2 My fans rarely kick on.

Koyo FTW

I had that same problem. It was a good excuse to get a J's cap.
