Ok, here' the situation... a buddy of mine recently picked up a 93 Talon and he is frantically (sp?) trying to get this car back on the road as a DD.
We have put over 10 hours of work into the cooling system recently as a part of an overhaul on the motor. Flushed radiator, new water pump, Tstat, coolant, rad cap, hoses, etc
When we give the car more than 50% throttle, the thing starts to overheat. Yes, it is turbo'd, but the IC does not block the radiator for the most part.
We were looking at options for a new radiator as he thinks a bigger, aluminum radiator will help (along with a nice fan shroud set-up if the stock fan setup cannot be used. Has anyone seen the Mishimoto X-Line? Instead of the "normal" 2 row core, this one has 3.
