Fluidyne vs PWR

Hey all, quick question, is the Fluidyne anymore superior to the PWR radiator? Both of them seem to be all aluminum, yet the PWR is basically 100 cheaper. Whats the main diff? How's the fitment?

Does anyone have experience with the PWR? If so, please share them!

PWR and Fluidyne are identical. Same design and dimensions. Only difference is the name.

I have the PWR and love it, car runs alot cooler even with a front mount ic, runs a steady 86c-92c readings on my PowerFC even in the summer. Comes nicely polished too

i have a PWR in my car. Made by Paul Wheel Racing in Australia. I believe it is sold over there as the M2 radiator.

My car sits on between 84-86 deg celsius even after driving hard. Perfect fit, no mods required.

I'll put my vote in support of the fluidyne. I have one and have not had any problems since. It is high quality aluminum and has very durable welds.

I'm running the Fluidyne myself, but I believe as long as they are properly installed with the factory ducting and coolant is flushed annually you can't go wrong with either. Both are excellent radiators.
