someone has tried telling my mate he will need a performance fan or radiator to cope with the power for a valver, he has the whole calibra running gear as well as his standard corsa 1400 sport equipment, any ideas as to whether theyre trying to diddle him?

Rads are all the same you need a fan froma sport or gsi as it has a flat motor and doesnt foul the exhaust manifold

It won't cope driving like a mad one in hot summer weather.
I would prefer to run a 1.5TD rad, just for sure if fitted to the CORSA.
But I drive between 5k and 7,5K, so...

fans may need modding to fit around the manifold.
an aftermarket, slimline one will be a much nicer fit, and i think is necesary on let conversions as the turbo and/or manifold protrudes further out into the fans domain.
