Radiator upgrade, S5 Turbo

Pete_89T2 · 12-30-2010, 09:03 PM

My original stock radiator is in good shape, pretty clean internally & shows no signs of leakage at the end tank crimps but it is about 22 years old -- I feel I'd be pushing my luck with it on the next road trip out to DGRR. Since I'm putting the car down for some other winter projects (turbo rebuild time!) I figure it's a good time to upgrade the radiator. I intend to continue using the stock fan & shroud and want something (preferably all AL, multi-pass type)that will fit my S5 T2 without hacking anything up too much.

Given the above criteria, what do you guys suggest WRT brands & shops to buy one from?
