CSF 7053 Center Radiator for PORSCHE 911 Turbo (996) / 911 GT2 (996) / 911 GT3 (997) / 911 GT2 (997)

Part number7053

With over fifty years of radiator manufacturing experience, CSF is the obvious choice when it comes to keeping your Porsche 996/997 engine cool and performing at its peak. Designed for track or race applications, this high-performance, all-aluminum radiator is a must-have for high-performance vehicles and race cars that require additional cooling efficiency in motorsport environments. This radiator features a 2-row core with CSF's exclusive B-Tube Technology: Unlike standard "O" style oval radiator tubes, CSF uses specially engineered "B" shape tubes. These B-tubes are carefully formed and then seam-soldered to seal them. CSF can use thinner, lighter aluminum material (with greater cooling efficiency) because this design is actually stronger than standard "O" style welded tubes. The design (inlet opening in the middle of the tube, seam-soldered) increases the surface area of the tubes' heat exchange by approximately 15% compared to standard tubes – the efficiency of two smaller tubes compared to one larger tube under the same space constraints. With B-tubes, "dual-core laminar flow" can be achieved. CSF also utilizes highly efficient louvered fins that are carefully and precisely aligned to maximize airflow through the radiator core. Fin characteristics are carefully measured and calculated for each application and tested in a wind tunnel for maximum heat dissipation efficiency.

The CSF radiator for the Porsche 996/997 is a true "Drop-in fit" design, requiring no modifications for installation. OE-style mounting brackets are CNC-machined and TIG-welded for maximum strength. The inlet/outlet ports are designed to match OEM specifications, allowing you to use OEM or aftermarket hoses. Trust the cooling experts at CSF for the most efficient, high-quality, and reliable radiators.
