no on the radiator, you'll be fine for that. Put the cash into headwork/cams.

Nope. I have a 2.5/2.0 with a 16g. Nasty setup BTW.
I made 260/290 on stock intercooler and sti pinks of course I have a turboback. I am running stock 2.5RS radiator. |

We did a 2.5/w 2.0 intake and a custom t3/t4 and kept the stock radiator on an '02 WRX, no problems at all.

good luck on the build i just did mine and spun another rod bearing with in 800 miles on the new block but i was only running my car on 6lbs with the stock turbo and what difference ... the torque is what made the car i also went with the stock sti head gaskets to bump the compression
