I run a standard rad with a pre cooler - i have never had a problem with it even sat ticking over for 90 minutes in the tailback to get into Ford Fair last year.

I also have an Airtec 70mm intercooler - yep it's heavy, welds are fine and it is proven to keep the ACT's right down at 35psi so why pay twice the money for weight and looks - seems silly to me.

If i had to upgrade i would go for a 60mm Airtec
