To be fair without the turbo and the intercooler in front of it I imagine it would do a decent job. I think ducting in the nose cone is essential also. When air hits a rad it will go around it rather than through it if it can.

Those louvres at the back of the bonnet will be dragging air out now so I dont think under bonnet temps is the issue any more. Also when im pootling in traffic the temps stay on the low side. When the fan comes on they do drop.

I see some aluminium double and triple core rads on ebay for £115-£150 so something like that should provide much better cooling.

Cheers
Stot
