Whilst removing the top secition of my cooler on the weekend I broke one of the water pipes off it and as the cooler is small, I figured it time to get one more efficient.
For those who have no idea what I am rambling about, below is a pic showing my cooler set up. So the black think on the left with LTDHO on it is being replaced. Now the reason for this thread is the price. I may be spending up to $1000 for it. Now it will not be a stock radiator cooler, ir will have internal tube fins, etc and should be twice as good. I'm hoping that the motor will be easier to tune, be more economical and maybe increase of power(not important), Also it will look prettier

I thought a more efficient cooler and more power was a given with boosted cars.
