Texas people.... got question

I know Texas in the summer time is very hot, almost similar to Taiwan. My question is for those pushing over 320 up to 400whp max, will the stock radiator hang with the heat and power?

They have so far. It never hurts to upgrade though. If you have the money just do it.

Upgrage your antifreeze and you'll be just fine... Even at track events

APS DR series. Talk to Astroevo about his. I think it's the best for volume and cooling. I have on on my WRX which is laying down 590WHP, 715 crank. No heat problems.

Good luck.

How well does it handle 30 minute sessions at full throttle 90% of the time, in the upper gears.
