ive been told by API impreza that the cheaper 100-150 ali rads tend to crack at the bottom which then needs to be completely removed to be repaired !! how much power are you running ?? the standard copper rads can deal with over 400+ bhp ! so id save money and get a standard subaru one imo hope this helps ?

The RCM gobstopper ran a standard rad at 700 plus HP if I recall We have cars in the mid 600's on standard rads They are VERY good.

Mishimoto the US Rad giant will be setting up over here during and after Xmas Their stuff is top quality and one of their rads would not suffer from the cracking that the cheaper ones suffer.
