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

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.

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.

Let me know how that Twinscroll 18g goes, I'd be interested in running it as well! Also very nice build, gotta love swapped cars.
