you want to be using a 1.2/1.3/1.4/1.6 petrol rad, the diesels are the biggest but also have different piping so cant be used. Best of the lot being the GTE/GSI one as thats the biggest one that will work.

yep all of those will fit, im pretty sure the 1lt rad has different piping as well. I rad a 1.2 one on my old one for ages without problems.
