| When you are financially ready for the power, do the injectors, dual POP, and intercoolers. The stock radiator, like the stock brakes, are barely enough for even a stock street-driven car, IMHO. If you have 1/2 the foot most TT-ers have with >400RWHP, even a few short stints at boost will raise your coolant temp. The larger core and aluminum endtanks of the aftermarket units are superior to the stock radiator. PLEASE do an aluminum lower radiator pipe. It's very cheap insurance, and the stock lower rad pipe blows. You live in Texas, please - for all things Holy, change that soft rubber stock hose. As for the hardpipes, we can pro/con all day; but at the end of the day, I'll venture to say it's more than 50% personal choice for aesthetics and ease of maintenance. SS
