Can anyone think of a down side of adding an extra smaller radiator to work in conjunction with the stock radiator for extra cooling? BMW's are doing this for the 1M.

i agree with the point made about extra cooling outside of the thermostats control,
now that i have a temperature gauge i notice when i turn my heater on, the temperature momentarily rises before settling back down I guess you gotta remember, the hot water behind the thermostat is what opens it, maybe thats what toyota had in mind when they designed the waterpump and thermostat housing and turbo water return -------------------- Mike W
