I’m needing a New radiator and I don’t want to get an original one again for obvious reason aha, so does anyone know the best radiator to go for at a reasonable price

Any idea what you have fitted currently?

 

I have a Fletcher Alloy two core radiator - they're pretty good for the price point but an alloy rad may be overkill depending on your setup, what engine and state of tune are you running?

I'm running a Fletcher too! Does fine on my highly modified 1330! 

 

Good rad for the price, and includes the silicone hoses if you get the bundle. Although I think you will need a hose reducer for the heater outlet from the bottom hose like I did!

A quality 4 Core Copper Radiator will be fine.

Mini spares special 2 core with the switch for your fan. I use it on my turbo.
