Yeah, FRPP makes one, though a review here on the site suggested that it was not much better than stock.

I would check with the big-name aftermarket radiator shops: Be Cool, Griffin, Fluidyne, etc. I know the latter make one for our car.

My question is what do you need one for...? what are you going to be cooling.

If you were building a 1000hp engine then I would talk with the big names, and you might be better off having them build one to your specs. now if you are just talking 500-600rwhp, then do you really need one, unless you are doing endurance racing. What is the gt500 using fo a rad..?

IT's going to be a waste of money unless you are acutally pushing enough HP to need a bigger radiator.

If you're not making more than 600 HP, the only thing the bigger radiator is going to do for you is increase the weight of your car.
