I couldn't find this anywhere, but when you guys did the swap did you use the st185 or 205 radiator or will the stock one be sufficient. I have the ST btw and it gets around 85 to 100 degrees here in the summer time almost everyday.

Well I trust what kwanza has to say almost over anyone on this board. So I will try the stock one like he said.
J, how old was your stock radiator? Are you sure it wasn't going bad before hand coupled with the intercooler blocking the air? And I have an ST185 clip. |

No I am not sure but that doesn't sound likely. Many people do not have problems with the stock radiator so you might just want to try that first. Its free! If it doesn't work for you, you can always go double core like me. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |
