i had one for a while and it was prpbably less efficient than the std 2 row copper and brass one! once it got hot it stayed hot longer than the std one.

I got some 52mm core, triple flow ally radiators made up to suit GQs with TD42s. The end tanks are made from 3mm Ally sheet, not thin crap like some others i've seen from so called ally radiator experts. All the mounts are strong as. Come with billet filler neck. The factory shroud even fits as well.
They work a treat and only cost $660 each
cheers

i went cheapest alloy one i could get and now runs a fair bit cooler than the standard one (standard one was in pretty bad condition). have had it in for only about 3 months but very happy so far.
got mine through purplebus off here. cheaper than ebay and very helpful too.

i've had a fair bit of experience with chinese made intercoolers and radiators in drift cars and they've all prooved to be very good and cheap
