@Element Tuning I'm concerned with your findings. I'm very close to pulling the trigger and going for a turbo setup for track days. Of course I will be running an oil cooler before hitting the track, but I won't have a built motor for a while. Most likely will be running between 7-10psi until motor is built (or I build a separate block). If I were to run 10w-30, have an oil cooler, and run a larger radiator core ( probably dual pass ), would this be adequate or would I still have to run an external pump? If I were to run an external pump, how in the hell would I go about doing this while still leaving A/C intact?

The car is daily driven for now, and will remain that way. Living in Florida, A/C is an absolute must lol.


Edit: it's also worth mentioning the turbo will be oil and water cooled. Larger dual-pass radiator, with oil cooler should drastically lower oil temps, no?
