I'm not sure if it's worth the cash... even the FI guys still run stock radiators without issues... I've pushed my car HARD in 114 degrees and it didn't have a problem keeping cool... hoses will look better for sure though.... if you want engine bling.... killerglass is really cool too... EVILDAVE has some in his xB and it looks nifty.

its not that its a problem now... its that i dont want it to be a problem later... better safe than sorry... same reason i did valve springs and retainers... also the reason i dont do an underdrive pulley (no harmonic balancer). im just a cautious person.

I got my silicone samco hoses through lastlookcustoms 10% off sale, that was the best price I found. It was around $75 dollars shipped.

They'll be getting installed this week. Let me know if you find a radiator I was on the hunt for that a few months ago.
