radiator turbo question

[Goon]

I'm on the hunt for a new radiator soon, just wondering if standard would do? or should i hunt out the alloy turbo radiator??

an intercooler will be installed too..

Cheers

i would say goon that the N/A Radiator would be fine. Change the Thermostat to a new one.
I would recommend possibly upgrading it to a Vl V8 Radiator for extra cooling. or go further and get a Alloy high performace type
Your choice and others peoples recommendations would be the key :P
Goodluck

It'd be fine, but you can get a three core or whatever they are in non alloy for 400 dollars from most radiator places.

Alloy would be a waste of money unless you get it insanely cheap and if you're going to be needing it.

[Goon]

Well atm i got a source for 300 for both 6 and v8 n/a raditors and the alloy is only another 30 bucks for turbo... its a hard choice between the v8 and the alloy.

[Bax]

If it's only another 30 bucks go for it.

dont touch the ebay alloy ones

i was lookng at one at a radiator shop and the welds had split on the end tanks after a week in a silva

just get a vl 6 auto - thats what im running
its 3 core and will be plenty

good alloy one is about $900 - PWR

there are two na 6 radiators 2core and 3core make sure, the one you get is the 3core.

will do bro, thanks ! is there a way of telling the difference just by looking at it?

[jatsvl]

yes the 3core is as thick as the tanks and is heavier, the 2core has a lip from the edge of the tank to the core, very noticable if you have seen both or if side by side.
