turbo radiator placement How are some guys mounting the radiator when the turbo is mounted in the center of the nose of the car? I've seem some laying the radiator flat, but that makes me nervous as far as cooling capacity, My car is mainly a track car but will see some short drives around town.
Thanks for any help

This seems to be the best thread with the most info about custom radiator in a custom turbo setup.

As far as the griffen goes, you are going from a stock rad, with stock decent fans, being blocked by the ac condensor, to a much wider, 2 row, all aluminum race radiator. If you get decent fans on it, i cant see you having any problems, and it has to be way better then stock.
You also get more room up front.
Good luck, Chris
