    There is nothing wrong with the factory one even if you car is quiet modified and regularly tracked.

    i should have mentioned, it has had a new radiator sometime in its life, and is just a cheap aftermarket brand.. 
    and the bleeder valve it is meant to have for the cporrect system bleeding, is not there and instead has a bolt threded into it rather than a tap, and it is definatley an aftermarket of some sort as it is very different to my previous factory mr2..

    we have given up with cheap chinese and malaysian alloy rads. the big problem is the fins (called gills) are not fully bonded to the cores so they dont cool very well. in fact, some are MUCH WORSE than a stock factory rad
     
     the factory rad , or a quality replacment rad, will handle all you can thow at it
     
    email direct if you want one
