Internal combustion engine runs on heat - fuel and air mixture is ignited to produce thermal energy, which is converted into mechanical energy and transferred to the wheels making the vehicle move. In theory, the hotter the engine runs, the more efficient it becomes, in practice there is a limit to that. At high temperatures metal has the tendency to weaken and at a constant stress can slowly deform, so exposing your engine to such unacceptable degrees will render damage. A cooling system is a must to prevent your engine from overheating - generally keeping the temperature of cylinder walls under 250°C. An efficient cooling system should also maintain the temperature at a constant for proper engine performance and good fuel economy. OEM radiators are designed for vehicles with factory output and daily driven conditions, for people that like to push their vehicles to the maximum, or run an even slightly modified engine, OE radiator cannot perform a sufficient enough cooling job, which can result in engine damage or worst case scenario a blown motor. Proper cooling is especially important if you have a heavily modified vehicle, the very first priority in the design of any vehicle for racing purposes should be the provision of adequate engine cooling, therefore proper aftermarket radiator is a must if you want to maintain your engine's maximum performance and prevent damage.
Mishimoto aluminum radiators are top of the line racing radiators designed to keep the engine of your vehicle at the most efficient practicable operating temperature. The efficient design of properly allocated fins and tubes provides maximum cooling area for the coolant within the minimum physical dimension of the radiator - maximum cooling from a slim and compact radiator. Whether your vehicle takes place in any kind of motorpsorts where it is put through continues strenuous activities, or you just like to push it to the maximum on the street, Mishimoto radiator will perform a high quality and reliable cooling of your engine to keep it performing at maximum potential and prevent overheating which will extend the lifetime of your engine. Mishimoto also offers a special X- Line of high performance aluminum radiators for heavily modified vehicles. These 3 core radiators are significantly larger than the standard 2 row radiators - providing extra heat exchange surface and greater cooling fluid volume. X-Line aluminum radiators are specially designed to provide extra efficient heat dissipation to those high output racing vehicles that need it most.
- Aluminum design provides greater corrosion resistance and makes the radiator extremely light.
- Internal tubes are flat in dimension and significantly larger in diameter than in OE radiators, providing increased surface capacity, resulting in a more effective cooling of the antifreeze.
- Perfectly optimized fin density provides effective heat dissipation by maximizing air travel through the radiator
- The slim radiator requires no modifications and is designed to fit directly in place of your factory part.
- Limited lifetime warranty with accident protection.
- Mishimoto radiators vary from single, double or triple core products specially designed for the cooling needs of a certain make or model.
- Magnetic drain plug at the bottom of each racing radiator collects all harmful metallic particles that could build up in the radiator's tubes and inhibit the cooling dissipation
Also, for heavily modified vehicles, Mishimoto electronic cooling fans shroud kit is highly recommended. For efficient cooling of a modified vehicle it is extremely important to have constant volume of airflow precisely targeted through the core of the radiator. At low vehicle speeds and under engine idling conditions or while driftin sideways, the radiator lacks that natural air flow created at highway speeds to aid the cooling process. The purpose of the electric fan is to maintain a proper air circulation through the radiator at all time, to keep your high output engine within adequate temperature ranges and the shroud keeps the air flow concentrated exactly on the radiator, this is especially important on those excruciating hot days when you are crawling in traffic. Electric fans are also more efficient than engine driven mechanic fans by moving more cubic feet of air per minute
