Just get a new GSI rad if your looking for cheapness. Let_nova has a alloy one so your best speaking to him.

alright, the above radiator is great. it requires no mods at all to fit as its to factory length and height. does the job well, looks the part not that expensive and if you fit a 10" slim line fan aswell it will free up a bit of space in the bay.
pm me if you require anything else

Save your money and spend it elsewhere. LET's are fine on standard GSi radiators so an XE isn't a problem.

i was thinking of a slim line fan with the alloy rad but wasnt sure if id have to mod one or the other for them to fit together
