So ***** rigging is something nobody in the history of cars has done? I just share my experiences. Take my gauges for example. Pod screwed straight into the dash. Works just fine for holding two pieces of information I need to help make sure other **** ain't broke. Sure I do need to exercise patience and wait till I have everything I need but at least the car still runs. Also I don't mind the whole learning to hard/stupid way I.e. keep you hand away from that nipple on the radiator because that **** breaks super easy. Thus I share so maybe someone equally as dumb as me can learn

Screwing a pod into a dash and JB welding your OEM radiator when it breaks twice is a different story. My radiator broke right before my tune, I bought a new one. Why take the chance right?

Oh nah this radiator hasn't broken twice. Same thing happened to my last radiator in the same spot before. Ghetto rigged. Ran great till I replaced it. Same situation with this radiator. Two different radiators. Same problem same "fix". Only difference is this time I am getting that aluminum replacement.

Yup. Since the JB weld every time I get in and out of my car I check the "repair" and fluid levels. As I drive I constantly smell the air. No leaks though so I am thankful for that
