Default DeWitts Stimulus Group Purchase

We know money is tight and we thought it would help to offer our annual GP now instead of the usual year end. In case you never saw this, here is how it works.

1. You get 10% discount off any radiator or combination kit
2. Free shipping to 48 states
3. You must purchase from the website to receive this special
4. Enter the letters CFGP somewhere in your name line
IE John CFGP Doe

International customers are eligible to receive the discount but must pay freight. Our order form is designed for USA address format but you can fudge the real address into the fields and just pick Michigan for the state.

NOTE: The website has automatic order acknowledgement and this will not show the discounted price or the free shipping. DO NOT CALL TO QUESTION THIS! We will ID all orders by the CFGP and apply the discount on our end, you will not be charged the acknowledge amount.

Sale ends October 31, 2008

Thanks, I can use it on the C4 section. I don't know why but this section always seems to be the least interested in our stuff.

Many C4 owners are entry level, young, just dont have the money to fork out for the good stuff. These cars are super cheap so that draws the same type of consumer sometimes.

Keep it up Tom you have a good product.

Yeah, unless it can cut .5s off my ET, i'll replace it when it breaks...

Ok, so I'm not THAT ignorant when it comes to preventive maintenance and putting quality parts on my car, but it's all about priorities. C5 & C6 cars are new enough that owners get to choose which parts they want to replace, and most of the owners have a little more cash in the "car fund." On my budget, if I have to choose between an awesome radiator and replacing my opti & water pump to keep from getting stranded when they fail, guess which one wins... It's not that i don't want the nice radiator, it's just lower on the priority list. Nothing against you or your company, I'm sure it's good stuff. If could just get the dang Illinois politicians to quit taking all my money, I would be able to spread it around a little better.

Default Bump For An Excellent Product!

To those of you interested, I just replaced a radiator in my '89 C4 coupe with a DeWitts direct fit part. I must say it is an excellent product ~ drops right in with supplied wider rubber isolators. It is about twice as wide as the OEM radiator, (two cooling rows instead of one) Way more cooling capacity than even the OEM HD unit! Nicely made piece. I'm very happy with it and highly recommend it to all.

The car ran hot in the warmer wheather w/AC on, this radiator dropped the coolant temps 20~25 degrees. This is a must do mod if you want to make more power, or if your other engine mods are producing to much heat that must be removed.

I just wanted to get this back up ttt because each year we do this and without fail two weeks after the sale someone writes and asks if we ever have sales. Remember we do this once only per year, so act now.

Kinda hard selling radiators in the fall

I had someone PM me about mine.

I told them I bought it about 6years ago, if you radiator with integral engine oil cooler was available I would have done that instead.

My vote is that the DeWitts dual Spal fan housing for C4s
is very desirable.

The provision of the relief flaps in particular marks it as an
intelligent design.

This may or may not be the particular model for the C4 - but it
conveys the idea. Tom DeWitt will be able to help those wishing
to receive further details.

That's for 90 and above dual fan setups, 89 and below are single fan. Still waiting on mine, ordered last week.

Thanks for the correction.

I have since located the 'Add-On Fan Kits' link at the DeWitts site.
