Quoting brunoboy:
civic radiator? it will make so much more room to work with.
Even the scirocco radiator allows for shortroute, as far as i know. Look at terry posten's panda bay. There definitely appears to be room for a 2.5" pipe on either side of that thing.
I'm thinking of ditching my honda radiator, and getting a DSM filler cap, so i can go the same route. It's just a bit of a cleaner install, and i feel the honda radiator works fine, but overhead is more limited as far as cooling capacity goes. I know the scirocco rad would help, and give me more space, since it can sit a bit further forward.
