Over constant thermal cycles, the plastic becomes brittle, leading to micro-fractures and coolant blowouts at the seams. Furthermore, the restrictive single-row design lacks the fluid capacity and fin surface area required to efficiently dissipate heat during heavy loads. Once the EJ engine experiences heat soak, the ECU pulls ignition timing to prevent detonation, resulting in power loss and placing the sensitive factory head gaskets at severe risk of thermal warping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis performance unit upgrades the cooling system with TIG-welded, all-aluminum construction, completely eliminating the failure-prone plastic end tanks. Engineered with a dense 3-row tube core measuring 27.50 x 13.50 inches, it dramatically increases both fluid capacity and external fin surface area for optimized airflow dynamics. The aluminum construction offers superior thermal conductivity, ensuring rapid heat dissipation even under sustained boost. Standard 1.50-inch ports guarantee a direct drop-in fit for factory or silicone hoses. Additionally, the included high-pressure radiator cap raises the boiling point of the coolant, safeguarding against localized boiling and cavitation within the Boxer engine's water jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid rgb(224, 224, 224); font-size: 14px; height: 79.3888px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); height: 20.5972px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; height: 20.5972px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; height: 20.5972px;\"\u003e2002-2007 Subaru WRX, WRX STI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5972px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; height: 19.5972px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; height: 19.5972px;\"\u003eEJ205, EJ255, EJ257 \/ GD, GG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); height: 19.5972px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; height: 19.5972px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStock Output\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; height: 19.5972px;\"\u003e227-300 hp \/ 217-300 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5972px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; height: 19.5972px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; height: 19.5972px;\"\u003eDPI 2703\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2002-2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI (EJ205 \/ EJ255) (AT \u0026amp; MT) - Models with Filler Neck Only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2002-2007 Subaru Impreza 2.5i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2002-2007 Subaru Impreza RS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2002-2007 Subaru Impreza TS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2002-2007 Subaru Outback Sport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Subaru Performance Caliber\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt to withstand the punishing demands of turbocharged JDM performance, this all-aluminum radiator ensures consistent engine operating temperatures, protecting vital components and maintaining peak horsepower when pushing your Boxer engine to the limit on the street or track.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50254354284792,"sku":"DS-ERZDLWAG0","price":209.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/performance-radiator-for-subaru-impreza-wrx-sti-2002-2007-1.webp?v=1787941333","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/fr\/products\/performance-radiator-for-subaru-impreza-wrx-sti-2002-2007","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
