    ABY Coupe front mounted radiator

    I am currently planning my project and have a question.
    Can I replace my current ABY radiator (and rotten aux rad) with a front mounted rad AKA V6 and later non I5 models? I plan to fit a chargecooler where the current rad lives so I will have plenty of space behind the bumper.

    It has been done, but I have not seen it done using the stock V6 crossmember, the ones I have seen have been on motorgeek with small chassis 20vt swaps and used custom crossmembers to push the rad forward.

      check the s2 cabriolet thread, it was done in that from what I remember.

      Acidburn also had a v6 rad and huge ebay ic in the front of the engine before with slight trimming to the inside of the bumper with a flap wheel.
