What's a good, lower cost radiator for a MK III?

916MKIIIx2 · 01-21-2010, 10:25 AM

Any reference on torque specs for an adapter going into the ATF spot on the transmission? I'll check back in the morning for replies to my last 2 posts. I totally can't wait to start! Thanks for the help so far!

Is there a diagram that shows where the stock transmission cooler lines run? I want to remove those if possible and put in complete custom lines.

i was reading though this and wondering if it would be worth using a aftermarket a/t cooler or is the oem good enough?
where i live it can get pretty hot in the summer, i thought there might be alot of heat with the a/c on when stuck in slow traffic

It won't hurt, but I don't see the point in going to all the trouble of custom plumbing and mounting if you're not also replacing the radiator. In that case I'd just get the whole thing thoroughly flushed at a rad shop.
