How efficient are the stock R1 oil coolers? I am going to be running a gt80r turbo on my 3 rotor. Will the stock r1 coolers cool it good enough? I was going to go with rotary extreme's dual monster cooler kit, but then it will take me longer to get the car on the road, because I still need a clutch, intercooler, fuel pump, and rad. I found a good deal on the stock r1 coolers, so I'd like to run them if I can.
Thanks for your help,

They're decent generally people at the track see anywhere from 10 to 20 degree (Celcius) change from stockers, but I think CWR or 2 Mocal 25 row oil coolers is a better set up. But the question is do you want to fork over the extra money? It's definetely worth it, IMO. One very important thing is that if you decide to go with the dual Mocal's 25 rows they even have 34 row but that's just overkill IMO, you'll probably end up making your own ducts. Make sure you make them right, that's probably the most important aspect when making air coolers, supplying the air.

Well sorry for the run on sentence. Anyways here is a link that I came across a while back...

Best of luck,

Forgot to add if you go with the Mocal's don't forget your thermo, lines, and fittings. BTW don't rush things, take your time and make sure you get this done right. That way when you finish you don't have minimal amount of doubt.

Thanks for your help! That cooler kit looks really nice, and costs a lot less than the rotary extreme kit.
