Brand new Z 20k for mods

Congrats. Sounds like a hell of a build coming. Question. Why did you opt for the 34 row oil cooler on the '13? Plan on tracking?

Because turbos.

If it were my build I'd be looking at a radiator too.

Gotcha. Somehow missed the turbo listed right above it. Still early.

Go get some more coffee.
Oil cooler is good, I agree a radiator might be a solid upgrade to consider also depend on location & demand. Since he said this will be the highest HP car he might be taking it easy at first so might not need it really.

Considering how much he's dropping in labor to put in the kit, I'd do it now since you're already discharging the AC and draining the coolant to pull the motor.

Definitley could use some. My brain saw the 34 row oil cooler and knowing the '13 comes with one factory; immediately the question popped up in my head. Also since I am considering adding a 34 or 25 row oil cooler to my '12 to keep temps down on the track alongside the factory one. Although I didn't hit limp mode last weekend at Barber. I was curious as to the decision, but with turbo in the mix it's a completely different reason.
