Title: Gti mishimoto radiator fitting?
Post by: aarondsg on March 25, 2014, 12:02:01 am

Will a mishimoto radiator for a gti fit with a alloy end s3 intercooler?
Reason I ask is it wouldn't fit with my mates airtech intercooler.
Thanks in advance

X2.

Unless you live on the equator, a performance radiator won't give you much (or anything) in the way of performance.

Would be better spending your hard earned on an air filter, remap, exhaust etc  :wink:

Those across the pond complain that some trimming is needed for this radiator to fit properly on a mk5.

I have a induction kit and a remap on my edition 30  already and I got it for free basically lol so I thought of fitting it with the intercooler if if possible.
What isit they say needs trimming?
