Radiators

Know it's been a minute. Look to see what everyone is doing for upgraded radiators? Looking to add some more fun to the car and make sure he stays cool

Is it beneficial to upgrade the stock radiator as well as the stock heat exchanger for non track use?

I did suspension and I put on a hellion kit ( had to modify), clutch drive shaft shifter. Now just think about turning up the boost bit with that comes more heat. I do have cooling kit from dei that spray c02.
