Radiator recommendations
My radiator when out in my c6 2007 coupe.
Can anyone recommend a high performance radiator? If i'm replacing it, I might was well get a high end one.

Dewitt is really good. I did a Z07 radiator when I upgraded my engine.

I'll be doing a Dewitts in the near future. Their reputation is outstanding on this forum and elsewhere.

I had two Be-Cool radiators in our C5, both replaced because they started to leak after a year.

Which DeWitts model did you use, the A09Z or the A05A ?
If it was the A05Z, did you have to change to the quick connect upper hose?

I bought a Dewitts A05AE with both EOC and TOC from a forum member. Couldn't ask for a better radiator.
