CSF has just released their upgraded aluminum radiator kit for the Toyota GR Corolla and Yaris 3 cylinder turbo charged engines. CSF is a globally recognized company that produced performance cooling products for popular vehicles. Upgrading a radiator in a performance vehicle like this can truly make a difference. As most owners like to aggressively drive their cars or take them to the track, an aftermarket radiator will help keep those temperatures down. Cooler engine temperatures means more efficiency and power. So what are the specs on the new CSF Radiator for the Toyota GR Corolla and Yaris?

The original OE radiator from Toyota is a plastic tank with a single row aluminum core design. While this is generally accepted as good quality and durable, there is always room for improvement. The 5mm fins on the OE radiator made the system fairly efficient for a factory unit. The core itself is one of the biggest limiting factors at only 27mm thick and a single cooling row.
With data collected by development partners and race teams, CSF was able to design the ideal High-Performance replacement. The CSF radiator features the latest 5mm fin technology. These fins significantly increase the heat exchange surface area improving overall cooling efficiency and recovery while still maintaining good airflow. The core is much larger than the factory featuring 2-Row 42mm aluminum core. This both increases the fluid capacity of the radiator, and improves the cores ability to dissipate heat. CSF’s Exclusive B-Tube Technology increases the heat transfer by approximately 15% over regular oval welded tubes. In addition, the super-efficient multi-louvered fins maximize airflow through the core for the best possible performance.
The TIG-Welded 100% All Aluminum construction increases the overall strength of the radiator. This improves durability and longevity so you can be confident it will hold up to hard driving conditions. The right side tank includes a pre-plugged 1/8th NPT temperature sensor port for those looking for more accurate coolant temperature readings. Pre-installed foam strips on top and bottom end plates improve sealing for better airflow over the radiator. The CSF radiator mounts in the factory location and requires no modifications or cutting.
