How are you liking the triple core ?
Does it cool too much for the street application or is it better for track ?
the triple core is perfect for my car which is 100% street application, i don't have any rising coolant temperature issues after a spirited drive....i can't comment for track, as i never tracked my car nor do i intend to....i live in the Caribbean so its basically hot all year long,,, average daily temperatures of 30C
the triple "core" dimensions are H 13.75" x L 14" x W 2" and i use a 14" slim fan (with no shroud) which covers about 80.0% of the radiator, so no problems with cooling in traffic or otherwise-----avoid using the 12" fan as some have complained of cooling issues, same with the twin (2) core civic radiator in hot climates
based on some rough calculations using the core dimensions
my stock ep91 automatic core volume was 208 cubic inches of coolant (the manual ep91/ep82 radiator will be slightly less as it's a thinner core)
triple core volume was 388 cubic inches of coolant
again a notable difference in volume
in theory i'd say the stock radiator is longer than the civic triple core, so has more direct airflow, but a significant part of it also sits directly in front of the hot manifold/turbo, which kind of defeats the purpose when you stop (heat soak possibly)
meanwhile the civic radiator is shorter by about 10" to 12" depending on which stock ep radiator you have, hence less surface for airflow, but makes up for it in thickness/volume and being a greater distance away from the direct heat of the manifold/turbo
personally, i'm sorry i didn't install the civic triple (3) core years ago...lol...the additional space to work on the car is a bonus...lol
