Pics of my fd oil cooler

I just installed my fd oil cooler to added to my stock oil cooler. I added this on because I installed my HKS intercooler. Trying to keep my oill temps down.
Thanks Robert

oh damn, i thought for a second you replaced your stock one with an FD one... by themselves FD ones suck compared to FC oil coolers, but they would be a nice little addition

sweet......do you have anything to measure any difference in temps?

Other than not overheating after some track time - hehe

but props anyway....as we all know, the sky is blue, water is wet and rotaries need plenty of cooling capacity.

Before I put the fmic my oil temps at the track were 200 deg. Now with the fmic I don't know. Im installing my new turbo set up and a Apexi power fc in my car. Once its tuned I'll let you all know.
Thanks Robert

My oil pressure is the same 80psi. I have a 80psi regulator. As in capacity , I added about a half quart more.
Thanks Robert
