it all depends on the year, condition turbo/na. theres alot of factors, a 92 turbo teal on shadow grey leather is gunna fetch alot more than a 86.5 cloth n/a. the rad wont really help in the hp department, but will help cooling quite a bit. so with a 3" exhaust including downpipe with intake(i/c hardpipes, k&N filter) and boost around 10-12psi could potentially make 307rwhp and 320rwtq if you dont beilive me check this out , he shimmed his wastegate to 10psi too.http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6435 but then again there are alot of factors that play in important role. best bet is to get it dynoed.

first, radiatiors dont add hp. second, the only MKIII worth 5,500 with 3 denst is a teal 92 with black leather interior. If it is said car, get it. you can get a clean MKIII for arround 4k. mine was less than 5k and a little help, when you are ready to buy, walk up with cash in hand and demand a price. then you get someting like mine...TO4E powered

ya i see in the sig shes a beauty, i thought the radiator would help with cooling, stock radiators i hear have problems, but i just though it would help cool, bettering the chances of a little more performance into the car.

Well if you are going to do the cooling thing, i would suggest a pair of electronic fans as opposed to the clutch fan or a hydro fan like the 1jz use.
