Hi,
I was just wondering whether Aftermarket Radiators are of any use to N/A cars.. Do they increase any performance or reliability of the car, or is it just a novelty.. ?
Cheers

Of course they are!
Don't bother if you don't track your car on a regular basis.
The OEM one works well enough and the money would be better off spent on buying something for your girlfriend.

some aftermarket radiators ( as replacments ) are ok and quite good, also good in price.

I see..
Just that I saw a SARD Aftermarket Radiator on Ebay, and was wondering what it'd be used for etc..
But thanks for your input.. appreciate it :)

If you got money to throw around, a nice aftermarket radiatior looks the part in an engine bay, but like SPEEDCORE said, unless your tracking regularly and putting your cooling system under a fair bit of stress, it will be a pretty pointless addition.
get an AUTO eg radiator, they are thicker than manual ones.
