WRX vs non-WRX radiators - should we care?

[Frank818]

According to Mishimoto, there are differences between the Turbo and non-Turbo rads.

Look the last 2 down the page:

What are those differences?
Do they matter for us? I mean, does FFR provide something different with their kit depending if we are using a turbo or non-turbo rad?
Or is there anything else that matters?

I'm just going to use the MMRAD-WRX-01 as I'm using a EJ207 v7 engine (turbo), O worry about the OEM radiators as they have the plastic tanks, for the ~$250 I will go for performance radiator and for go the plastic.

I think the only difference would be the lack of a coolant return nipple from the turbo's coolant reservoir.

Ok I'm not feeding/returning coolant using the rad anyway, so I guess the cheaper rad between the 2 is the better for me. Now I need to find out which brand or model.

After some research, it seems it doesn't matter if the engine is WRX or not. A rad is a rad, as long as it's efficient enough to cool the engine.

As for fitment issues, even if the WRX and NA rads wouldn't be identical, they both are certainly supported by FFR.
