SMP Race Radiator
 
Coming out the demo car. Fits STI, and all MY WRX's. All Aluminum design. 38mm single row core - most efficient design.
7.9lbs. Drop in design reuses stock fans and overflow can.

Perfect condition. 5k miles on it. Welds and tanks on this radiator are second to none in craftmanship. For pics, PM me if you are serious.

$360 + Shipping from CA.

Changing it for a new prototype radiator we are working on.

ps. Buy this radiator from me - and we car work on a deal for the soon to come Matching overflow Aluminum can and our air splitter and thermostat.

You sould do a 3-row "horizontal flow" radaitor. I would be all over it. ;)

multi rows
 
From our experience (Actually, our engineer - Tony Woodford - he's not a big fan of multi -row cores. First, they are somewhat more inefficient. Air passing through first core - gets heated and passes it to second core, etc. Single row - if designed efficiently should be more than enough to handle our car's needs. He should know - he's built countless F1 race cars and touring race cars. He's also well known for his radiator designs with the infamous RX7 and its problems with heat.

The other more simple reason we chose a single core - drop in design. Using more rows, in your case 3 - would cause serious fitment issues.

Lastly, fans - stock ones are pretty good. They are sufficient again for most people's purposes - the street. Going to fatter rad designs usually causes you to lose the stockers and replace them with the thinner - less efficient aftermarket fans. Which is why C&R charges much more for their design. Why add cost?

If you want cooling efficiency in your car with a drop of 12-15 degree op temp, try water wetter and a 160 F t-stat. For modded boosted cars - its the classic most overlooked part of the engine - the cooling system.
