Ive called Pep boys, Advance auto, local shops in area. All asked me if turbo or non turbo. They all tell me they think theres a difference on which one I get. Most you know im NA but going turbo. The NA radiator is $149 and the """high performance""" one is $369. I dont want to be paying that much for either of the coolers because I will still need coolant and Im going to replace all the hoses while im at it. I would love a alumium one, but cant bid on ebay for anything.

Slowboyracing has some good prices on aluminum radiators.

And I am pretty sure all the radiators have all the same mounting point and hose placement, etc; regardless of rs, gs, gst, gsx.

Drives: 1996 Talon AWD. Built, but no longer drives: 1997 mitsubishi eclipse RS; 1990 Talon AWD; 1995 Talon AWD, 1997 Talon AWD. Seems like a pattern
I thoght the oil coolers were external and seperate from the radiator on the 1g's except for the transmission?

I think the turbo Radiator are thicker. But then again the automatic Non turbo RADS should also be thicker.

the major diff in the price is the n/a are plastic,and the turbo are aluminum.thats why they cost soo much more,however they cool alot better,if you going to turbo later on just get the aluminum
