Question Volvo oil cooler?

I read somewhere that people have used a volvo oil cooler instead of stock oil coolers, its supposed to be bigger and what not, has anyone done this or know of any info?

I think you are confusing Intercooler with oil coolers.

The stock oil cooler on a turbo volvo is considerably smaller than the stock oil cooler on a FC.

However some people have used Volvo FM intercoolers.

The factory oil cooler is MORE than sufficient for any use you could afford. Just make sure its clean and has good airflow.
