There's also plenty of crap in the way like fan shroud, AC line, intake pipe(absolutely no way with stock airbox), AC compressor pulley. There's really not much room at all to do it vertically. There is a small chance it could work if I hack up the coolant flanges and weld some tight radius Aluminum elbows directly to them. Still thinking about this...

Also I just ordered some new AN Female to Male 90 degree fittings(didn't think to look for that until just now) in place of 90 degree hose ends, these should make the overall assembly much less wide.

Don't know what I was thinking initially. Was changing out my radiator today and can definitely see I was on something after seeing the limited room.

I am only seeing the benefits of the oil-water cooler in auto-x use here. For reference, I have a 34 row Setrab installed. No thermostatic adapter. In the cold months it sucks to have to start the car 10-15 minutes ahead of time, but wa no biggie after a few weeks. In the warm/hot months is where the larger cooler shines. Even if my car sat idle for an extended period of time, I never had any oil temp issues and I am in the people's republic of Texas.

That's the goal

Is that 90 degree coolant elbow the 1.25" one? Isn't the stock hose 1.5"? I can't believe they charge $55 for that stupid elbow.

Cute little guy. By looks, that's the 92mm long cooler, an chance of either the 182mm or 332mm being offered?

Sales@AAMComp · 03-29-2013, 03:00 PM

We're going to be sticking with this size cooler. Very efficient for it's size, compact, and where we have it fitted it's almost like it belongs there!

How does this compare to the air to oil coolers as far as cooling capacity? ie. is this equivalent to a 25 row, 34 row, etc?

Khoi, any updates on the oil cooler?
