You absolutely need to keep your heat exchanger and get a bypass valve if you're going to open track/HPDE it. The Interchiller is good to super cool the IC fluid and lower the MAT temps so each run...

I went with the dba rotor rings, set of Ferodo pads for the street and hawk dtc70/60 pads for the track. Should arrive any day now. Girodisc was tempting as the quality is really good.
