Recommended Oil coolers & questions

This, 100%. Just to put it in perspective, I'm seriously thinking of adding a *second* 34-row cooler....

I just installed a 34 row from Z1 a couple weeks ago. 2014 Touring/Sport, essentially stock, my DD and autocross/HPDE warrior.

I left the stock oil to water cooler because I didn't have the non-cooler filter stud. If you leave the stock cooler, you will have a tough time getting the lines installed and the oil filter in place. There is very little room for the tiny stock filter with the Z1 cooler plate and the stock cooler plate installed; forget about putting a taller filter there. I am going to remove the stock cooler soon and bypass the coolant loop.

I ran a track event in NC last weekend, with temps around 95 and ridiculous humidity. Oil temperature topped out around 230 during each 20 minute session, and quickly dropped to 180 after coming off track and turning the A/C on. I was trying to keep up with the C6s in the twisties and keep the STIs in the rearwiew, so I was not being easy on it at all

Im going to go ahead and bump this again; i currently have both z1 and stillens in my cart ready to buy.. After some more research i keep seeing people relocating something and drilling; which one of these provide a true bolt on with no relocating or drilling required?

I have an 09 touring and looking for a 19 or 25 only.

Well both you have to drill a little. The z1 you drill one hole in the vertical beam for the hood latch, that's it.

Just go the z1 and you will not be sorry. Stock oil filter size with many to choose from and a thermostatic plate. Very simple install.

I am installing the 19row for tranny and 34row for oil this weekend on a 2014 Touring Sport.
From all of my pre-planning I only see me drilling for the mount brackets. No cutting.
All my front mod parts were from Z1. Intake/Coolers
They are very good to deal with and work with. Lot's of people like them from a lot of feedback you will see in forum.
But you can go with "Name Plate" products too if you want bragging rights....
(Personally I liked the savings and can use that money on other "Name Plate" deserving mods that are seen without opening a hood.)

Hey cool I did the same 19/34 setup. You can use mine to copy if you want. I combined the two mounts and ran the 19 in front of the 34 (doesn't seem to effect the 34 at all).

I just might have copy this.....
I was going to have a fab shop make me an extended bracket to mount on passenger side.

But if this worked better for you, then I might just go your route instead.

I do wonder though.... If I paint mine before mounting, will it jack up the cooling? I have seen some guys with painted coolers around town.
