Turbo radiator in NT?

[talonation777]

I just have a quick question, which may sound stupid, but I wanted to be sure before I put my money on the line and order it. I was just wondering if you can use a turbo rad in a NT car? I have a 2g NT and I'm looking into an aluminum rad w/ fans. I found a complete system for a great price, but it's only listed for turbo. It looks identical to my radiator so I was wondering if I could run it on my car.

Sorry for the dumb question, I just want to be sure. Thanks!

Almost any radiator can be run with almost any car the biggest consideration is whether there will be enough cooling (which there will be) and if it will fit (it should though it may take very minor modifications) that said, there may be differences in the transmission and oil coolers, check what your radiator cools besides just the engine, consider that each of those lines may need to be re-routed/may have a different thread pitch if you are comfortable with that then go ahead and buy the radiator.

Yes it will fit into the car, no you will not be able to run it. The top and bottom hose connections are totally opposite for the turbo and non turbo 2g's.

Just save up and invest in the correct radiator for your application.
