okay is the radiator the heat exchanger? when i got an estimate on fixing my car it had the radiator, an aux radiator, and the ac condenser. it would be much cheaper if i got an aftermarket heat exchanger but i dont know which it is.

 

well u have a heat exchanger plus a radiator they are two different things

 

And also run on two separate systems, I had some work done in a non-GM body shop and they never thought to fill the heat exchanger because they thought it was plumbed in with the radiator.

 

your radiator cools ur engine !
the auxiliary radiator " aka the heat exchanger " cools the air after it passing/compressed by the supercharger !

get a stock heat exchanger or get the griffin one from ottp, and u'll be set for good !
as far as the radiator you can get them cheap for about 60-80 dollars on ebay, used heat exchange run about 60-100 dollars...

Contact FUSION on here, they're cheap reliable and will get you all the parts you need !

 

also while ur doing all that make sure ur intercooler pump is working

 

i got a stock h/e for 70 plus shipping if you want it let me know!

 

buy it !!! its a pretty awesome deal !

 

idk i would get an aftermarket one and pay alittle more then ur set for later mods no offense G11 not trying to take a sale away from u its just what i would do

 

well the griffin is like 500 bones with brackets...only other ones i can think of are the secondary h/e

 

well like the s1 from zzp is 159 the s2 is 189 the s3 is 219 all are on zzps website and in stock

 

ya but those are supposed to be ran with a stocker...at least i think they should be

 

im not 100% but i think i read u can bypass ur stocker and just run this one but idk for sure maybe they were talking about running it inline or somthing **** i cant remember now anyone else know?

 

I know for sure i need a new radiator, but they dont know if i need a new heat exchanger or ac condensor. ill let you know in the next couple of days when they know!

 

You need to run the stg 1 or 2 with the stock HE.

 

and what about s3?

 

How sure are you that these heat exchangers won't provide the same amount of cooling as the stock heat exchanger?

 

Personally, I still would since the goal is to get as much cooling as possible, but you can get by without the stock HE if you run one that large.

 

well i lose then lol

 

Did you ditch the stock HE?

 

I ran the zzp stage 3 heat exchanger without the stocker for a week since my stocker broke, the temps went up faster and took longer to drop down, and i had option b dual pass and yes my pump was working my opinion is get the stocker and and a zzp stage 3 h/e or an ottp heat exchanger and run it with the stocker and call it a day unless you have some money then you can buy the griffin h/e alone !!!

thats my .02

 

no i was just saying what i thought was wrong
