Any cooling benefits of this rad over OEM?

we are working on radiator mounts... stm does make a very nice piece, but our clients really like our logo and so do we

they do cool better, import tuner never published ther findings but on the same core with the straight shot hose, our radiator out performed the oem, mishimoto, and koyo and on a prolonged steady state load run, produced the highest hp and torque with lowest long term temps

Great info, Chadler!

I'd love to get these coated with Swain Tech's BBE Heat Emitter. It has a very nice black finish to it.

Jalal,

I will post pics once I receive it from Swain Tech. I had my IC coated by Swain Tech, and I think it was like $100 or something. But that was awhile ago.

Very nice. I look forward to check it out! I plan on getting my IC and rad BBE coated and even thought about getting the LICP done as well. It all adds up though. We'll see.

I cant see why people would want the hose in the stock location. I want your other one that puts the hose away frome exhaust heat now that one is sick Just my 2 cents, either way Chad you make some quality products.

Well, I tend to be someone who just gets something when he wants it (meaning I tend to ask questions like this a little later..."So how much exactly was it for that Swain Tech coating? LOL).

It was $185 for the coating. Shipping to Cali was like $40 and I got it in around 2, maybe 3 weeks. Not cheap, but I am someone who wants every last bit from their builds. You're talking to the guy who is going to ceramic coat the coolant tube that runs behind the engine to limit heat soak in the engine bay LOL.

Aby's cumulative approach to getting horsepower has rubbed off on me
