I've been successfully using a Polo rad on a 270BHP supercharged engine. Two points to keep in mind. Firstly put cowling in front of the
radiator or seal the edges to stop air getting around the sides. Use large vents on the side especially exiting just behind the turbo to the heat out
of the engine bay. I've also put slotted vents directly above the exhaust manifold on mine recently.

The lolocost shop from Robin Hood do a twin core Coolman radiator with twice the capacity £70.

Polo rad does my V6 proud - even a little too efficient in the cold weather.
Cheers,
