For anyone that installed the Rennline 3rd radiator for their 997.2 offer some insight into this ?
Checking on the pricing there is a huge difference between the 997 and 997.2 and I wonder what is the difference of the 2.
997.2............$1115.60
997.................$204.52.
I'm scratching my head here ...

Here's the answer:
I installed a third radiator on my 2012 997.2 last month at about 30,000 miles. The amount of garbage between the radiators and the a/c grilles was surprising. Gravel, paper, leaves etc. was easily removed with the front bumper off. It also made checking the operation of the radiator fans. They often are stuck with a piece of gravel lodged between the fan blades and the housing. The addition of a third radiator and a half gallon of Porsche antifreeze seemed to be helpful. Cleaning the standard radiators was probably just as valuable. I also replaced the coolant cap just as a precaution. I recommend the Zunsport grills especially with the third radiator. BTW, the third radiator kit for the 997.1 works very well on the 997.2. These are the parts you will need for the 997.2 third radiator:
Item Part # Quantity Amount Ship date
AIR ROUTING 997-575-141-07 1 $139.80
RADIATOR 99704410005 1 $173.22
Subtotal $313.02
Shipping (USPS - Priority (2-3 day delivery)) $10.74
Total $323.76
