Hi guys, I'd like opinions on ASI radiators - I know they are Chinese manufactured. Are they worth buying?
Thanks

Mine has been going strong for nearly two years...

The ASI radiator in mine has been installed for about 3+ years by the previous owner and its fine, if it does leak i'll probably replace it with a koyorad or a mishimoto which are guaranteed for quality

Do a search on MT.net for their thoughts on "Mishimoto quality" - Mishimoto hoses are their ONLY endorsed product there.

Thanks for the heads up Lokiel

Thanks for your views, guys. As one who has done some TIG welding I'm interested in seeing the quality of their welding.

The one in my NA has been in for over five years and is going great.
Not being an expert the welds look good to me

Quite a few forumites have advised they've used them, with only a couple that have leaked, but were immediately replaced free of charge with no requirement to return the leaking one.

Thanks RD & 93 for the encouraging info. I have a 42 mm cored example on its way so we will see how it goes.
Cheers,
