I pulled mine without a problem, as have a few of my friends.  I think
the auxillary radiator would only really be necessary if it was really
hot out, running the AC, and pushing the car on a track or whatever.
Try as I might I've never been able to get the water temps to climb up
to unreasonable levels.


Hope that helps!
