However, a good quality trans cooler would be a good idea, which you say you already have. Not too sure about having them inbuilt into the radiator. A stand alone external would be the go.

They all seem to return good results.Rapid seems to be the best bang for buck around here.Is it an R32 drag car?Benny Edited 28/01/09 02:18 AM by Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pube Member 159 Member For: 17y 5m 7d Gender: Male Location: Sydney, NSW Posted 29/01/09 10:33 AM Share Posted 29/01/09 10:33 AM From the information provided in the original post dragr32 I have taken it from the point of view that he is looking for an intercooler to aid his towing, in which any aftermarket cooler will not provide. Any aftermarket intercooler will restrict the air flow to the radiator more than the stock unit. However, as dragr32 has provided us with more info, he has plans for some mods.
