Why would you need one? Our cars stay PLENTY cool with our stock units. Unless you have some super high HP engine, then save your money. Later

Seriously, The coolant never gets over 210 degrees coming out of the head. That includes after a pretty good flogging. There is no need to upgrade the cooling system for a stock or bolt-on upgraded engine.

True that. But what about a half-sized aluminum radiator for someone doing FI? There's room there, but it's kinda a tight fit to put the manifold and turbo where it goes. If we could get a smaller radiator off to the passenger side, then you could comfortably mount everything. You see what I'm saying? I don't think it'd be a bad idea.

oohh, this is good news. but does it fit an auto transmission? I see no warning, but as far as I know, radiators come as a manual replacement or automatic, not both. I'm guessing it's only because we have the transmission cooler lines.

I was on Dezod's site and I saw that he has a aluminium racing radiator. But I'm not sure if it's for manual or auto????

probably every aftermarket radiator is for manual only-- no props to us auto peeps. Only difference is the transmission cooler lines, but I dont think a tranny cooler alone would cut it
