I'm thinking of swapping in a TNT radiator in my list of mods. Will I see much of a cooling difference for a street driven car? I've run mostly aluminum in the past, never had problems.

No experience here with the TNT radiator, but I've put Fluidynes in both my cars and it makes quite a difference as long as you're moving. In stop & go the temp climbs until the ECU turns on the fan. Once you're moving, with the big radiator the temp stays exactly at the thermostat setting. Even on the racetrack in 100F heat I never saw over 200F coolant temps, and that was on my 515 RWHP RT...
