My temperatures on the trip home from the invasion were up around 215, so I am hoping that this aluminum rad will cool it down. Also planning on putting in a slim fan on the A/C side.


A new rad with two good fans will definitely help, but on the highway my temps are always very high because even in 5th gear it sits at a high RPM and, especially with the 14b, it's always on the verge of boost (we're talking ~125km/h).

But, I can happily say in stop and go traffic and any other driving than highway driving I never have heat issues anymore, unless I'm into boost a lot. But for *normal* driving, you should be more than golden.

Next for me is to start doing ductwork for the rad.
