300/500 is still going to be pretty jarring.

I know, but I had initially intended to go with 450/650!

Nothing can go easily! Radiator fans aren't working with the new rad, intake pipe rests on coolant hard pipe, turbo water pump bracket hits compressor housing, turbo coolant line is a little tighter to the compressor housing than I'd like, stress bar hits brake booster heat shield...what else is going to pop up?

Finally got my Rad fan tonight just now. I'll let you know how it goes. Much lighter than the stock unit.
How are you making out with your rad?

Good to hear Jason, I'm waiting to hear back. I may end up going your route if it's the easiest, but who knows. Right now I have PLENTY of other things to do, like drop rear suspension...

Darwin, if you do, call me first. I may be able to run a bit of interference with Broadfoot for you. No promises though.
