I just ordered a front-mount intercooler and will be needing a new radiator. Is there an option for a wider radiator since the intercooler bracket is not needed? Wouldn't that be wise to have for cooling since if you have a front-mount intercooler, it probably means you have a high hp motor and could use the increased cooling capacity?

Why not run the 4.6 rad?

Jeg's has some larger alum radiators for cheap. Here's my thread:

You might be able to go with the next size larger, but you'll have less room to routing your tubing.

Many have had trouble keeping their cars cooler with the FMIC. I would recommend the best, highest capacity radiator you can afford (may not be the Jeg's one.... 
) and possibily mounting the FMIC such that the radiator still gets some direct-air flow.
