This guy on YouTube swears by it functioning well, as do others in the YouTube comments. It's $100 for the whole kit and thermostatic plating, he links it in the video.

A good oil cooler setup should run $600-$700 normally. Then after investigating on eBay I found a 30 row oil cooler for $120 ; that's $20 more than the 15 row he links in his video:

Please be respectful as we ALL know the reputation eBay warrants.

1. Anyone can make a YouTube video.
2. People lie

Oil coolers are simple and should be reasonably cheap. You can even make one yourself. Being universal means it won't fit right to start, the hoses and brackets wont line up for your car so your going to have to make your own. Bottom line how much will it cost you to replace your engine if an hose fails? More then $300 i bet, so spend a bit more now on a reliable well made good fitting kit made for your car.
