I finally am really fed up with not having an up to par cooling system. I now have a coolant leak from the radiator, and its running hot regardless of outside temp.
I road race semi-frequently, so I need a setup that is more than just daily driver material. I have been doing some calling around and looking, and it seems like the Fluidyne's go for ~$350 (2 core), $450 Steeda (2core), or $200 stock. I already have a new stock fan/shroud on order, and am going to put a pusher fan in front of the radiator to help in traffic.
My question is this: Is spending an extra $100-200 on a high performance aftermarket radiator going to make a difference over a generic aftermarket OE style for $100? I never had cooling problems EXCEPT at the road course, but now with the leak and lazy fan it gets hot all the time.
Please help, I have an event in a couple weeks and also need to do this right because I'm halfway saved towards an S-trim next spring.
