Stupid car

ahhh... i found out that my radiator has a small hole in it, and the last few days, ive always been wondering why my car has been warming up fast. i have been seeing wet spots on the floor when i get in my car early in the morning after a long night of parting... anyways, so i turn on my car and i was going to look at my hondata settings and i download the calibration. and it shows the "correct" one. so i was looking at the settings and what not. then i accedently pressed the upload button for 1 second because the stupid lapton has the tracpad set to click when you tap it... i haven't used this laptop forever, so i called my the guy that dyno tunned my car and im waiting to see if there is a back up dyno... god im a idiot, so i go back into my house and i see there is radiator fluid squirting out... ahh... i checked the fluid level and there is a tiny bit left... ****.

so i need a new radiator... any suggestions... preferably upgraded... and i need to mess with the hondata again.

i loaded the calibration and it runs really ruff

there is a guy on ebay who makes custom radiators. and they are actually really nice your lloking at like 3x the cooling capacity. my neighbor bougt one for his allmotor D16 and its works really well. dropped his tempratures by about 30 degrees. and i think it cost all of $220.

i know that he can load the software to your comp and you can reload from your back up. and i know that the software is expensive as hell but get him to do it if you need it bad. good luck with that. did you find out how the whole came about? or how a rick could get up and into that radiatior?
