That explains it. I was there getting an alignment and saw an RS which strongly resembled yours.

Developed a small leak on the radiator, took it out tonight, gonna see if someplace can seal it up tomorrow.

The bolt on the condenser was rubbing one of the tubes

I readjusted the brackets holding the condenser to allow more clearance. But I need to fab some top radiator supports So it doesn't happen again.

Why do swappers (other tham Fran, which is the only one I see) keep their stock NA radiators? You fellas should look into that since you're not running NA power anymore. I notice that a lot from pictures of swapped RS's.

You cant tell from the pics cause didn't do a shot of the whole radiator, but its a Mishimoto.

Not only hard, but long too, lol. As in tracking long, which significantly pushes the cooling system. On a DD, stage 2, and hard driving here and there is fine. But I've seen guys that track their car (not here) and complain of overheating. The diagnosis: insufficient cooling capacity.

Saving up for a twinscroll TD05H18G

it should have similar characteristics to my VF37 but with better numbers in the mid and high end.
