Default focus rs, 70mm chargecooler or front mount intercooler? also which radiator

well realised my radiator has a leek so going to buy a new 1, is the rs radiator the same as the st170 and 2.0 etc?

also whilst looking at this i thought it was my chargecooler leaking, upon looking i realised it was my radiator,

whats the best option, 70mm alloy charge cooler or a front mount intercooler?

thanks

I'd be interested to know this ad well!

But I suspect it depends on what turbo and what power your looking at??? Hazard a guess I would say up to 300 on standard turbo youd be good with a charge cooler upgrade, any thing more and you will be working the turbo some and producing more heat thus needing more cooling. I couldn't comment on hybrids or gt 28's

Not sure if rs is differant to standard 2.0 focus. I'm sure if you ring your local car parts supplier (euro car parts a quite cheap) they will know if it it's the same or not. It will be on the system. Also I know Andrew page have access to fords system so can check.
