after 30 minute run on the dyno from warm up to 70 mphs cruising and accelarating....

temps went down about 28 degrees on average.
not too bad after all.

need to clean up some tabs and shroud when i get home, so it looks pro.
i have better tools and machines there...

i am a distributor/vendor for megan racing, so i ll withhold my statement since i am not a vendor on here.

But Megan racing sells them on their site for 245 + shipping.

its a supra TT radiator, yes.
no flipping of mounts, they bolt right on with some minor adjustments to the tabs, like slotting the holes for the srew and grinding one end down to make it sit flush.

if you are retaining your shroud instead of going electrical fan, you need to cut/grind the battery tray box, and the shroud in a few places, and make small customs tabs so they are secure, since you have to cut off the oem mounting tabs on the shroud.

thanks fellas, keep it up.

PS: i also figured out why my radiator keeps cracking by the neck or below the neck line.
the former owner or someone jacked the front end of the car or hit something and the
bottom radiator support it bend slightly upwards; thus, making my radiator sit a little
higher than normal. each time i shut the hood, it gives a nudge on the radiator cap,
putting stress on the plastic neck. i will have to pull/hammer/bang the bottome radiator
support back to normal to make it sit in there properly so no more contact upon shutting
the hood. hope this helps somebody.
