General principles do not agree with significant oil temp reduction but I like data so………...I'm in for data results on oil temp affects. If this helps track environment oil temps by +5% I'm in.

We have an update on these units!! We've experienced some delays with manufacturing these units due to all the different components, but the first one in the world has been installed into GTM's 1000 HP "White Dragon" Thanks to Sam for helping CSF out with the install.
I've included the picture that I took today of the unit installed at GTM.

I've also included the results from our wind tunnel (Simplified: Horizontal axis = air flow / Vertical axis = heat rejection). As you can see the cooling efficiency of our units increases as air flow increase (similar to speed of vehicle). I'm working with my engineers and design team to get graphs and charts that are more easily understandable for marketing purposes, but I thought I'd share the data with you all.

Sam has also rigged up another Z with temperature probes to get us real readouts to compare to stock oe units. These results should be completed by the beginning of September when the limited supply of these units are expected to have arrived from our factory!

Have a good weekend everybody. CSF will be at Formula Drift round 5 in Vegas cheering on our sponsored drivers (Joon Maeng (Bergenholtz/Full Tilt Poker Rx-8, and Michael Essa's Custom M5 engine 3 seriesR). If you are there, come say hi. I'll be the guy in the CSF shirt.

open to any questions

Thank you

Sweet Ravi the radiator looks sweet!!!! Can't wait to get to drive the beast!

bullit you should have them throw a fan on your oil cooler, you know insurance ;)

The chart I'm assuming is in regards to water? There has been a few posts regarding the overall affects on oil temperatures. Will you get oil temp data as well with your testing of the radiator?

Thanks!

CSF has a few of these readily available for anyone that wants one now!

how many row in the csf radiator and the stuck or stander radiator

Stock radiator is 1 row = 15mm thick
CSF radiator is 1 row = 32 mm thick with B-tube technology (~15% more efficient than normal tubes)

Also separate condenser rather than 1 piece design, which is more efficient.

Ravi, are there any electric fans available that will fit the new radiator? I'm thinking with a thicker radiator we would need something with more CFM.

+1 for this. I'd love to know as well.

+2.

I've attached a picture of the fan shroud. I'm not really sure if it will accept aftermarket fans.

The stock fan shroud & fans is already pretty good. Considering how poor the direct airflow is with the front fascia design, and how inefficient the stock 1 piece cooling system design is... they are using pretty powerful and large fans to do draw airflow into the radiator.

People who run the stock fans with our unit see the benefits of the extra cooling capacity, B-tube technology, and 2 piece design. Both oil and water temps fall, and are more stabilized.. even under hard/spirited driving conditions.

Sorry I don't have anymore information. Other drivers who have swapped out their cooling systems with a CSF might be able to offer more insight.

The shroud you posted is stock or it comes with CSF radiator?

That is the picture of the stock fan shroud with fans installed.

Still running my CSF radiator after 15,000 miles and going strong.
It was a great upgrade after adding the GTM Stage 1 SC, especially with Texas summers. :tup:

^ This is with the stock fans? If that's the case I wouldn't mind the upgrade, keep the fans, and reprogram the fan settings for starters.

Yep, stock fans. I have yet to do the update fan setting but I can bet that will help even more. I probably just need to redownload the software and do it myself since I will not be messing with the tune directly just basic settings.

Is that possible? I still have Sam's tune, but it'll be nice to change stuff around it.

[EDIT] Doh, I don't have the tuner license.

I'm buying this thing today while it's a deal. I'm having issues with my AC turning into a blast furnace occasionally when it's balls hot outside. I'm hoping the condenser upgrade will fix that issue. Nissan said it was normal, and I asked "What part of AC blowing hot @ss air normal?"

Any one that may have a CSF radiator it is very wise to use anti seize on the drain plug and pressure valve before you install. The aluminum threads will not hold the test of time. I myself and another buddy had ours snap off of when loosening. Only took half a turn and it snapped. Seems in both cases the female threads get boogered.
