or you can stay with a stock dual core Delsol Vtec radiator and not waste your money. I am pretty adament about people buying all aluminum radiators when they don't need them. It's like buying a huge turbo for making only 250hp . What are you're plans for the car. If you just want a daily driver with ocassional drag/autox event then get a simple dual core half size radiator

Im using an 87 Volks Wagen Scirrocco Radiator. It fits nicely inside the rad support. all aluminum too.
