Someone on the Ausmini forums said that they had bought one and that they were good quality, so looks like it is a bargain and not a gamble; if you trust that one guy :)

two things concern me.....

it says it's only 40mm wide on the core, and 50mm in total, arn't the radtechs and such rads much more like 60-70mm wide? I know they're definately over 2''.

Also, the weight, it's listed as 14lb! How can an alloy rad weigh 7kg?

These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.

hahaha, I don't think it's for sale VanMan *tongue* Gino was simply saying he's happy with it for £65.

Looking at those pics, I think I'll hold out for a proper radtech
