Which radiator woud I get for a base C6 A6? I don't want one with the built in oil cooler since I am going to add an external oil cooler. If you have a part number for an external oil cooler, I would be interested in that also.
By the way, I have a Vortech Supercharger on my C6 and the room in the front is limited.
PS, where would you mount the oil cooler if I don't want to mount it in front of the radiator? Thanks

The C6 with A6 auto would normally be the A05A, but if you don't want the cooler for the tranny, then you could just get the A05M.

We don't do anything with external coolers
Can you tell me how much thicker are these 2 radiator vs the stock base C6 A6 radiator? Need to check for clearance.
Also I believe all C6 A6 comes with a transmission cooler, do I discount the factory trans cooler and connect to the A05A or do I just use the A05A as an extra transmission cooler to get the temp down even lower?

The new radiator uses a 2.25" core and the stock one is 1.0", but you don't have to check for clearance. We've already design this radiator to fit.
You are right, the A6 is an automatic and that car came with an internal transmission cooler and you want to say with an internal transmission cooler. You simply get the A05A and swap the factory lines to the new radiator. If you are going with another Engine Oil Cooler (EOC) separate from the radiator, then that would not effect the radiator at all.
