Default aluminum radiator questio

i have a 2002 mustang gt with automatic and ive been pondering on getting an aluminum radiator to help loose a little weight and help cool my car. steeda makes a radiator for my car and so does fluidyne. i was wondering if anyone has any expierience with any of them. i also am planing on getting a supercharger installed in my car and ive read that it can be a pain in the *** sometimes becasue the radiator gets in the way

Not worth it, it will shed pounds, but it won't give you any performance - your engine operates at fine temperatures as it is. You don't need an alum. radiator for any reason at all. For the amount of money you'd pay...you could get a torque converter, shift kit & gears for your automatic slushbox!!
