Default "Custom, Chewy"

Mocal 16 row oil cooler (pn MOC-16210) with aluminum brackets mounted on the core support. Steel braided line with Aeroquip fittings. Mocal sandwich plate (forget size, I think it's the 20mm, ask Funky) with lots of pipe dope on the threads and a small oil filter.

bad pics:

Is that a tranny oil cooler next to the motor oil cooler?

Agreed. An oil cooler is a pretty universal mod, no sense in paying extra for the premade.

I for one don't have one because it's $500 for a product I don't need it.

Default i agree, i should have been more specific...i would rec for those who track and live at altitude

I was seeing over 250 consistantly babying the car driving up mtn passes around here, if i got on it i would see close to 275. Turbos seem to run really hot at higher altitude so i decided it was time to try something to combat that problem. WIth the cooler install i never get above 220 on the road and barely see over 230 on teh track. I believe its a must for those who don't like seeing high engine oil temps. But you are right, it's not by any means "necessary."

Glad to hear it works as advertised. It's probably a good addition for some.
