Manny (presure2) and I put in an oil cooler today. I know it is close to useless on an n/a engine but we had nothing better to do in the 95 degree heat.
 my reasons why... 1 the 5s/3s have them stock (water to oil), and the euro STs have them stock (air to oil), so why not do it to mine. 2 oil is the life blood of the engine, I want to take care of it. 3 if/when I do decide to swap (probably Silvertop) it will be a nice add on. comments ? -------------------- |

[right][snapback]323249[/snapback][/right] Thats a very good upgrade dude and its good for you that you care about your engine.In Cyprus it is very hot especially during the summertime which the temp can hit 43 degrees and if you push the car even on night time you can see you oil temp meter moving like the boost meter to 110c degrees!!!!! |
