Try Asking a local expert like Ryan Eshelman,Jeremy Henry,David Knowels Or Sam Reel. These people should be able to tell you. I do beilve a radiatior would help but u dont need a radaitor without pipes filter ect. u could try a high flow water pump impeller. Pick up a manual and do it urself. I think david knowles has a manual he would sell u. ;p

Definately check the water pump impeller,years back my buddy had a lot of problems with his 'shee puking coolant whenever it got worked hard,turned out the plastic impeller it comes stock with was partly melted,replaced with an aluminum one,and it made a big difference. They do make larger,high capacity radiators for the Banshee,but check into the pump first,could save you a lot of money,and if you do open it up,put the aluminum impellor in even if the plastic looks ok,it will make a real difference.

The impeller would be cheaper initially, and all you gotta do is drain the oil, pull the clutch side cover, remove the c-clip, the plastic gear, the little dowel pin (going through the shaft) and there you are..
