Twin Turboed z's, what oil are you running?

I have the largest oil cooler GTM carries. I think it is a must no matter what mods you run.

The new GTM radiator also does an excellent job of keeping both the coolant and oil temps down on the turbo'ed and sc'ed cars.

Wow, does your throttle lag at 235F? The highest I've seen is 215F with mine. Once fully warmed up, it's around 195-205 (at most).

Went w a 34row Z1 oil cooler w all the goods...w/ their black friday sale, NO WAY could I pass it up Excited for when it gets here. Also purchased their clutch/flywheel combo....Im a little worried, but I think its just bc the price is so cheap! Almost like a "too good to be true" type thing, but I hope not! Thx again for all the info guys

I have the stage two gtm running the z1 cluch and flywheel. Blew a full face apart so I went with the 6 puck disk and I have no problems. I have 542 rwhp. Z1 oil cooler is a must. Mine gets tracked on road course and drag. When it gets hot dont be suprised when your ac kicks off. Make sure you get a radiator too man. Heat is bad on these cars. I loive in New Orleans so the heat kills out here.

Yeah a big oil cooler and radiator will be a necessity if tracking. I'm waiting on more info from GTM on their radiator.

Thats awesome news to here my man! Im originally from Hammond which is right outside Baton Rouge (you had to of slightly known w my username). I was concerned, but now Im much happier that someone else has had a good experience w it! Its not a DD and I've been boosted before and just know that you can't have as much fun when its 115 outside and we are talking a dry heat so theres no cooling it down :/

yea I live on the westbank in NO. I go to hammond every now and then its acually where i bought my 370. the z is my dd so you should definitly be good. yea i figured thats what ya name was meant for but ya never know nowadays. I really want to get the radiator and thermostat. The car when it was NA kinda spoiled me because I had the big oil cooler and all and it ran so cool. The ac was real cold and the car ran really smooth and no worries so im trying to get it back down to those temps with the turbos. **** with the humidity out here If I didnt have a vented hood it would run hot. My ac kicks off and everything. once I put the vented hood on its at really nice temps now but it still gets hot when humity and heat is up.
