oh man some responses here, i might slap the word "FACT" infront so this seams more legit...
The only two pros from this are space and weight otherwise there is no real benefit. (You're not even loosing much weight) A half rad will be just as good as your full rad but takes more work to hook up and mount. You won't be blowing up your motor any sooner as you'll still be able to achieve sufficient cooling. A/C also has nothing to do with the cooling system. Honestly unless you were shaving your engine bay, this is not worth the effort. half rad from a GT4
