Message looking it over. Pipe locations on the 22" are just fine. Granted there are no studs on the bottom, but fabricating mounts for the radiator would be cake. Just go to home depot and buy some 1/8"X3" aluminum pieces and make some up.

This is not the griffin, in fact it is a stock TT radiator mounted in my NA (converted TT). I used the stock rubber mounts of the NA with this TT radiator, I just used 10mm diameter bolts mounted with aluminum and screwed it to the bottom of the radiator. Took me about an hour to build it and install it.


: We researched this heavily before making our radiator, which I might point out is less than $400 shipped.

: Once you buy your $200 Griffin or Howe, you are going to have to pay someone another $100-$150 to reweld the inlet and outlet to the right size and angle. So now your at a grand total somewhere over $300.

: Then on top of that you have to figure out how to mount the damned thing.

: If you look closely at our custom Howe design, all that crap is taken care of for you.

: It has posts on the bottom so you car reuse your bottom mounts the way the factory intended. And with minor modifications, the top mounts and shroud can also be reused.

: This is not just a Howe radiator that we have had reworked. It is a complete custom radiator built from scratch to our specs to fit a TT with a manual tranny.

: You can find out more here [ http://www.lvcm.com/gotboost/howe.html ] or by emailing myself, wildstar or Chip Ginn.

: And here is a quick pic. More are available on the site.
