It looks like a pretty good version of a laminova-type exchange system. Most of the other radiator/oil-cooler combinations suffer from leaking and this one is based off of the Mishimoto radiator, which I trust to last. I only fear for the additional welding, and I know how FA20club is perceived on this forum.

Before I open up a string of vitriolic comments, I know of the issues people have had with FA20Club. I only want to know if anyone has tried THIS component and any feedback from it in particular.

This guy used a bigger core. Read the thread to see the results.

Here's the original release thread about the FA20crap product.

What I took from those threads, which when you take a critical look at those heat exchangers (HE) is obvious, is that the HE is too small, the stock rad will be a weak point, and the flow through the HE isn't very good.
But that only means that's a bad execution of the liquid to liquid idea. A larger core, with better flow and a properly sized radiator should still work well.
I feel like I should be joining /r/hailcorporate but from what I've seen aceheaders will also have this product space on lock down. Give it some time to let Mike and the gang finish testing it in the heat of this summer and I'm guessing we'll have a viable product finally.
Disclaimer, I know nothing. Aceheaders and CSG haven't told me anything, I'm just a forum whore.
