So when are y'all planning on going to DIY next week? maybe early next week?

How about Tuesday? I'll be off work that day around 330 so I could do 430 or later.

Nice. I personally like the quality on Radium's catch cans and ill probably upgrade to a double from Radium when I SC. The AOS I have is working fine, drained it last month, but I want a higher quality build.

What are you considering for oil coolers? Just sayin, make sure you consider water/oil too and not just air/oil. The major benefit being that your oil is cooled by the larger radiator, more surface area. This does make it dependent on the engines cooling system though and no longer makes it an independent system, so there is the downside.

However, couple a water/oil cooler with a sweet Koyo Radiator and some upgraded radiator hosing, and you have a pretty sweet cooling setup. Prob what i'm going to do lol also it has the added benefit of warming up your oil faster at startup ...

Sorry, just a random two cents

This would be perfect! My friend joel will be in town, and my friend aaron who helped me with the un-install of the BC's off @DTS's car should be able to come also, so we will have some helping hands for anyone that needs help. I can also bring my tools. But yeah, Tuesday or Wednesday would be awesome

.....

P.S. My Mileage is in the high 20's. Not saying anything more then that lol. I got my car in Feb 2013, but I do drive back to dallas a lot, so that probably effects it.

There is the robispec radiator option which (lack of coffee here) does what yellow is describing.

Thanks for being such a great pace car last night, @Turkish. Hope I didn't mess up your drug mule run

It's a monstrous radiator, and has a long long lead time.
