Coolant over flowing
i got mine from auto zone... i think 150ish if i remmber correctl..in that range... i couldn't find anything cheaper.. i called radior shops first but they cant repair the aluminum radiators.... just stop leak temporarily.
i'd suggest going that route and not buying used though, could easily get damaged in shipping..atlest if you get form a store its warrantied

I can get a mishimoto for $239 shipped or
CSF single row, plastic top OEM Replacment for $98.89 shipped
There are option out there, it just depends on what you want. I don't think I want another plastic top tank design.

plastic radiators will crack and leak i see u live in cali too, we get hot summers where i am, rather then buy another oem buy another upgrade, think of a radiator as another part that can wear quickly, rather have somethin strong n sturdy that wont crack in a few months comin into summer... but to each there own, go cheap on exhaust parts not on cooling parts...
I've already made up my mind on the Mishimoto Rad. I already have the Mishimoto Div. Plate, Hoses and keeps (Mounting brackets), this will make it a complete Mishimoto cooling system.
The leak is getting worse, I'm at work and will take it straight home and park until the Radiator arrives. Once that adhesive starts to go, it's toast.

true that man good luck but being that your crack is up on top low boost it if at all, should keep the coolant pressure from pissin too much coolant out the crack.. hopefully you dont gotta drive far, since youve installed that other stuff a radiator is pretty straight forward...one recommendation make sure the lower bushings where the radiator sit in the support are both there and not cracked if there missing or torn, theyll cause front end vibrations ask me how i know that...one was gone when i replaced mine haha
Thanks for the tip, I'll check those out and replace if needed. I'll be using my stock fan/shroud, does this get close to the compressor housing? I do have a front motor mount to help keep it from rocking forward.
I'm still on a Stock IX turbo on Speed Density, so I'm not worried about the custom intake(Tube and Filter), it's the thicker Mishimoto Radiator. Stock Radiator has about an inch between the shroud and cover, and think the Mishimoto Rad. is thicker by at least half and inch. But if your on a Red and stock shroud, I should be iat.
yea so ull be good man dont trip itll fit, just be careful with installin it dont wanna bang the fins on the wastegate actuator or turbo itself, now when you install the radiator have the fan/shroud installed on it already, to install it make sure to remove the intake pipe and filter to make it easy to slide it down and in. good luck man
