PWR Radiator:

I bought my car with this installed, so I can't really comment on installation. BUT, it didn't appear that anything was modified or hacked to fit it in. Construction of the radiator itself seems excellent. I have never had any cooling issues with this radiator, although I have seen some relatively high temps ~215-220F when really pushing the car on a very hot day. I generally start easing off when I see the temps get that high, and I think a second oil cooler will allow the oil to do its fair share of the cooling to eliminate these high temps.

I did have an issue with fitment when I installed my PFS SMIC. The IC duct interfered with the radiator fans, so I had to modify the upper rad mounts to drop it down a bit. Even with that I still had to hack up the IC duct to get everything to fit correctly. However the PWR radiator fit perfectly with all the stock equipment.
