Help out a noob here please. Is the center radiator only needed in hot climates and only for PDK? I'm curious if I should start budgeting for this on my soon to be C4S 997.2.

I've read that unless you have a GTS/X51 engine kit/PDK, you should not install the 3rd radiator because it makes your car run too cool. I am not an expert at all so I highly advise you do more research and speak with your local Porsche tech. Unless you are currently experiencing high water and oil temps in normal driving or track your car extensively, I recommend not installing and save yourself some money.
