About CSF 7088 Radiator

Design & Engineering

Joe Anselmo Motorsports is one of the leading Porsche service centers here in Southern California and specializes in 944s. With Joe’s knowledge and expertise, CSF was able to design the radiator to fit all models of the Porsche 944. This High-Performance Radiator is a True Plug-and-Play “Drop-in Fit” upgrade. All mounting brackets are CNC Machined for precise fitment. The cooling inlet/outlet connections use the same OEM style slip on connection type for use with any OEM or Aftermarket radiator hoses.

How it fits NA & Turbo

Many 944 owners know that the OEM Radiators for the NA and Turbo aren’t normally cross compatible without modifications. This is due the OEM Turbo radiator being ~1 inch taller than the NA version. While designing the radiator, CSF decided to base the dimension off of the NA radiator while increasing the core capacity to still exceed the OEM Turbo radiator’s cooling capacity. Using a 2-Row 42mm core with CSF’s Exclusive B-Tube Technology, the size difference is not a limiting factor in cooling performance. To remedy the size differential for installation, CSF includes CNC Billet spacers for use on the 944 Turbo (AKA 951).

Attention to Detail

CSF also included removable/adjustable crossover pipe brackets on the top of the radiator. The 944 Turbo model’s have a crossover cooling pipe while the NA version does not. This pipe is designed to distribute coolant from the reservoir to the radiator and from the coolant pump house to the cylinder head. From the factory, this pipe is normally zip tied to the top of the radiator to keep it from rattling around. Joe Anselmo thought this was a great addition to the radiator making the installation feel better than it came from the factory.

Upgrading the Fans

While the OEM Fans are functional, they are still a design dating back to the 1980’s and leave plenty of room for improvement. Electric fan technology has progressed a lot over the years and newer fans can efficiently move more air with a lower drawn on your car’s electrical system. The laser cut shroud ensures the most efficient function of the fans drawing air through the radiator. The low profile dual 9-inch SPAL fans move 1180 CFM of air. The Fan & Shroud kit is designed to fit the CSF #7088 Radiator but will also fit OEM 944 NA Radiators. These fans are pre-wired with OEM connectors for a quick plug and play installation.

Some notes about fitment!
Don't get me wrong, the actual CSF Racing radiator is very high quality, however you must know these things about the fitment prior to purchasing the kit, or you may go through the same nightmare I did! My car is an early 1985 944 model with the NA 2.5L engine. This may or may not carry over to the later models. The major issue was trying to reuse the OEM fan should. Since my car was a non-turbo car, and there are two different kits including and not including the CSF racing fan should, I thought it was fine to reuse the OEM fan shroud. This is simply not the case. If you use the foam strips that are meant to line the radiator and seal the fan shroud, the bolts are too short to actually grab the threads, even when putting all your weight into pushing the bolt into the hole. Then when using slightly longer bolts and making them finger tight, the plastic OEM shroud is ever so slightly warped from the foam pushing back, but enough to cause the fans to rub on the plastic shroud housing. If you remove the foam padding and have the fan shroud sit flush with the radiator, the fan on the passenger side comes into contact with the lower hose. I trimmed up the hose to try and clear up the space, but at the absolute limit, the hose will barely misses the fan, and I mean you can only fit a sheet of paper between the fan and the hose. I wasn't comfortable with running it like that and ended up removing my fan shroud and ordering a different shroud off eBay with a single middle fan which fixed the clearance issues. I will most likely replace the lower radiator hose just because of how much I had to trim it trying to get it to clear. However, if you have a turbo car, you should really get the CSF Racing fan shroud for the superior cooling performance. Then there were some more minor issues. The radiator has these little snap on clips for the bolts that hold on the fan shroud, they fall out too easily, I ended up taking them out, pressing them together, and that fixed the problem. The radiator also came with these support mounts that are supposed to hold this hose going from the passenger side to the coolant reservoir, they do not fit on the early 944 models, I had to zip tie the hose out of the way which was how it was when I removed the old radiator. Finally, the replacement hose that goes from the passenger side to the coolant reservoir is not molded correctly, holding it up next to the old one showed significant differences which made it tricky to route and connect correctly, but I was able to make it work. Overall, I believe for the value, you're better off going the eBay route unless if you have a turbo car, I was disappointed with the fitment considering the cost.
