rx7store's dual oil cooler

www.rx7store.net sell a dual oil cooler. I was just wondering if this would work with RE's v mount (stock twin) model? I just seem like it may get a little crowded under the hood. Thanks.

Well, the coolers themselves will be out of the way, it will be the lines that will be more of an issue. Rotary Extreme's dual kit works with their v-mount, but it will depend on how the lines are configured in the rx7store's kit. Also, I'm trying to figure out how the oil coolers are mounted with those vertical flanges...

Call 'em up - I'm sure they can give you a good answer, as I know they've seen a number of IC kits themselves.

Yes, unless you are tracking your car in warmer temps, there is zero reason to upgrade the oil cooling above the OEM R1/R2 setup. It's only under extended hard driving in warmer temps that the stock dual coolers cannot keep up.

And I have the Rotary Extreme dual 25-row setup.
