Default GSR radiator in a ek hybrid

Is there benefit to using the GSR radiator in a 97 hatch w/ bseries? If so, is there a downside? I am sure this has been asked before, but I already searched. Thanks.

benefit is ample cooling.
downside is NO room for AC condenser.

100% worth it for me....

Ok. I live in the south. No a/c is a terrifying proposition with Atlanta's traffic. Thanks man.

very worth it, but if u really need to keep AC, dish out the extra cash and buy a Fluidyne Radiator with FAL fans.

i believe you're better off getting the fluidyne radiator. i tried putting the dc2 radiator into the ek and it sux, plus there was no way of placing the a/c condensor with the fan.

just use a Del SOl dual core. You'll b plenty fine with that unless you're keeping your revs at redline for minutes at a time

So there is no way to keep AC and use a GSR/ITR rad?
