Sure thing... that kit really is inexpensive for a Porsche kit. I'm tempted to just order one for the sake of having a spare on hand. FWIW, I think anyone driving in a hot climate such as TX in the summer would benefit from having one of these installed. I recall that Porsche used to install them from the factory for cars inbound to countries near the equator. GLWS!
I know it helps when my car is heat soaked here in South FL with 100% humidity and 99 degree temps. Car STAYS cool even in traffic.
That 3rd Rad Kit is priced WELL. I just wish that you had a mesh inlay to protect the 3rd rad from road debris. I already have the Rad, just need the mesh. let me know if you can source it for me!

Third rad is a no brainer, specially for the price. Had one for so long, bought when sun..... Had it at $150 then waited till warranty over, now on the can and you will say this had to be standard. I yhink i just increased my car engine's life by 10 more years!

Third rad is a no brainer! Specially with the price. Bought one long a few years back, waited for warranty to expire, installed. Now could not be happier with a very stable oil temp just around 90, even in bad traffic.

This radiator mounts like a front mount intercooler, in the center intake of your bumper. On a GT3, the smiley face is a vent for the hot air leaving the center radiator. Since this kit was not designed for the GT bumper, it will not use the smiley face vent, but directs the hot air downward instead. You could use a GT3 radiator setup, which angles the radiator more forward, and directs the hot air upward out the smile vent, however this would be considerably more expensive, since Porsche does not offer a ready-made kit for the GT bumper.

Could you let me know how much the "considerable extra cost" is please. I have a GT3 front bumper also and have been considering adding a GT3 center radiator that gives the benefits of the down force in addition to the extra cooling.
Appreciate it.

We put together a kit for you with all the parts needed that we see fit using all OE parts expect for the radiator, which is the same (AKG) one Porsche uses. To view everything in the cart Click Here.
Thanks for doing this. Very helpful. Let me give it some thought and come back to you.
