Just my recommendation but I would upgrade the coolant pump before touching the exchanger. Then you could divorce the system and add fans for low speed airflow over the stock unit.

I have the APR Hx, only upgraded cause the stock one installed ate a rock.

How does one go about divorcing the system?

SRM has a divorcing kit they offer. Consists of the tank plus the hoses and parts needed to complete the task. It’s not a terrible install but can be a bit messy if you don’t have clamps to clamp off the various tubes you have to unhook and such.
