What should I be looking for in an oil cooler kit?
I'd like to get one on my Newage STI track car but there seems to be a few different features between the various ones available.
I'll probably buy something at the cheaper end of the market unless there's a valid reason not to, but what sort of thing should I be looking for? Oil filter relocation? |
Ask why its cheap as a starting point.
Needs to be thermostatically controlled and decent lines, http://www.advancedautomotives.com/m...ion-1818-p.asp |
Run the car with a modine first, you may not need one tbh, a modine is sufficient enough on some big builds, are cars seem to be different.
Use good oil, regularly change and I don't think you might need one tbh, later you can decide if you need one. |

You say that, but some of the cheap stuff, intercoolers and such, aren't actually bad kit. Sometimes the question is "why's it so expensive?!" ;)

I'm not running one yet, I'm going to see what it's like on track for long periods before I decide, deffo shouldn't need one on sprints etc.

I'm thinking about fitting one on my hatchback (road car) as it seems to run a lot hotter than all my other Subarus do ,
will go for a mocal set up soon as time and money allows |
