Alright guys and gales just thought I would give some reviews about my new Ebay goodies :lol2: for any unsure buyers(like I was)
First off is the "aluminum radiator" for 149.99 plus 40 for shipping from Street Imports.

It really is about 2.75" thick and almost fits like OEM. Some trimming of the fans was needed for better fitment. I notice now that instead of having the coolant gauge always half way(on the cluster) it now holds steadily at 1/4 the way up. It took a few days longer than wanted for shipping but it was deffinitely worth the wait.
Next is the "T-Pros Stainless Steal Downpipe" from ebstores for a total price of $110. Install was rather quick(about 25 mins) and it fit almost like a glove. Exhaust is now slightly louder and no real noticable power gains. I might add though that it sounds like the "flexable" section of piping was not made very well because it sounds like an exhaust leak. But...now that the cat and everything has been removed the exhaust sounds extremly good(pops and crackles like a WRX does).
In all...I strongly recommend these two products :tongue:
