Hello all,

I'm at an impasse. I'm putting on a twin scroll top mount and it's requiring me to remove the stock oil cooler. I have no problem with this. Seeing as real estate is tight I'm going to be using an air unit and fitting it inside an aluminum radiator (I'm just going to cut out the rows I have to (about 6"-8" depending on the cooler size) and weld it in. The core size is double the stock one, so losing 6-8" shouldn't cause any problems.

My question is which cooler will be best/adequate.

I'm down to two choices. The earls will be easier to fit and all I lose is about 7" of radiator. I'll be wedging it on the condenser fan side. The fluidyne will require quite a bit more rewelding and I'll lose about the same amount of rows.

Here are the two:

I dont run a cooler due to pressure drop,

 

who made the manifold? do you have one or two external wastegates?

 

It's a one-off from Pang that was originally setup for a t4. It used to be setup for two wastegates. I had it merged to one. He's still working on the downpipe.
