looking for another oil cooler
hey guys. it's been a long time since i've tracked my car or been active on the forum, but i'm back. i just was at big willow yesterday and even with my tru-cool
8"x11" cooler (Long / Tru Cool Oil Coolers Long coolers Setrab coolers B&M coolers L7B), i'm still overheating and hitting limp (about 275 degrees) mode about 4-6 laps into each session. it was about 85 degrees yesterday. i was hoping to do better, but ended up doing no better than a mediocre 1.43.3, which is exactly what i did a year and a half ago. i'm out of practice and it was just more frustrating that after a few laps, i'd have to pit and cool down. b/t overheating and fuel starvation, it's just too annoying and i couldnt concentrate on improving. the first 4 track days i did with this car after buying it were all during the winter months and i stopped going after the weather got hot and never got back into it again until now. is anyone running any other types of coolers out there that work no matter what? (hot summer days, all tracks, hard driving, etc.)? i'm looking for a once and for all fix. btw, on the street it hardly ever gets above 200, even during very hot weather. during the winter (here in socal), i can drive 15 minutes to work and have it not get above 160-170. thanks.
