well some little shit through a glass bottle at my car, smashing on the vents, loads of glass went into my radiator causing loads of little leaks.

obv. water usto piss everywere so it over heated now and again n i had to top up the water every week.

but...

since i put my induction kit on yesterday the overheaing has got 10X worse. to the point now i cant do a mile without the red light coming on.

do i just need 2 replace the radiatior or have i fucked my thermostat too by puttin on the induction kit?


cheers rep for helpfull answesr

i cant see that induction kit would fuck your thermo

you may need a new radiator if thats the case mate, if you can see water coming from rad. have you tried bleeding the system? may just be air in there, but if you can see water coming out then i would go for a new rad

i have a rad in the garage from my vts, full workin order just took it off for a new one, should fit a furio, just need to cut the lower pipe as its a bit longer then it can easily fit, only want 20 for it dont mind helping fit it either.

cheers mate just bought one this morning. thanks anyway.
but ye water is pissing out of the rad, looks like with some pressure too.
its only started getting bad since the induction was put on so i thought it may have been related.
cheers + rep.
