Pace
Radtec
Pro Alloy
GRS

any one of these will do the job!
personally i have the Pace version which works really well

If it's going in the boot then you don't have to be limited to a standard size

Radders, i think i have the best cooling on any road s2. I have to, i can't afford overheating etc. If u look at my setup, there is room for a small motorbike rad where the std cooler used to sit - going to put this on, as extra capacity for very hot days

Would you not benifit from just a bigger Rad?

y would u want a copper core when they rust much more faster then an alloy rad and gives u lots of crap in ur engine and cant flow as was as an alloy one !!! all of the cars now built come with alloy rad not copper!!!!

Rick

Ford rads used to be steel. Copper does not rust. Even if it did, thats what antifreeze is for.

copper does not rust or corrode so will last forever. It can however, turn a green (patina) colour like an old statue

As above Copper painted black is best for disipating heat.

If you keep you water system in good condition it will last for years.

Also i have a Pace and it could be made about 4 rows taller for extra cooling.
