Message	For the price of a Howe you could get a Pentroof radiator which is far superior. I have a HOWE and I'm disapointed in the quality. I got a deal on it so I went for it, but in retrospect I would have prefered to get a Pentroof. Here is why: 1) The pentroof radiator is a dual pass radiator. 2) The lower hose is relocated to the other side of the radiator and angled up. This is to accomidate the dual pass nature. In addition this allows you to cut off the lower section of hose prone to collapse. 3) It comes with an air extractor pot. Replaceing the overflow tank. Freeing up airflow thru the driver intercooler. 4) It's MAD JDM TIGHT YO! <-----ok that's a bit over the top. If you factor in the cost of a new overflow bottle from MOROSO, a radiator lower hardpipe kit and a HOWE radiator, you'll see the PENTROOF is now much less. In addition, you should probably factor in the cost of having the upper neck rewelded on the HOWE (it'll rub on a hardpipe). Check out PENTROOF on OOparts. As for availability, maybe someone from there can let us know. ======================================================== "I have no experience with this specific pump so don't continue reading expecting to find you answers." - ZLover4Life 07:14 3/16/04
