CSG Mike what hood vents do you recommend sir. As well I hate to bring up an old thread but I’m studying this pretty hard. Here it goes. My son just took delivery of a 2020 wrx Sti package but not the Sti. It has the factory water oil cooler that I’ve had on my 2015 Frs for 5 years. I’m oem complete down to the actual hard pipes. I see where Perrin has the oil cooler kit in addition to use on the oem Subie cooler for sale as well, indicating the oem aids in heating up the oil slightly quicker. Then the air to oil cooler thermostat opens at 185 or 195 allowing the oil to be maintained at a more constant lower temp across the entire engine. I’ve seen pics but never in person or talked with any body who is running this set up. I live north of ATL and right now are summers are brutal. We’ve had 14 days of 90 plus degrees and heat indexes of 100 degrees today of which was 102 along with 95 to 98 degrees of humidity. Example right now at 10:44 we pm we are at 89 degrees just had a thunderstorm and humidity is holding at 79 percent.
As I plan for purchasing boost on Black Friday, going turbo coming from my previous sprintex supercharger. I’m liking the idea of compound oil cooling as the WRX as they environment I’m currently living with plans in less than 2 years to move to Fla.
What’s your thinking on this and is a decent thermostatically controlled unit something you all offer that would work. Even if I had to fab up components. I value your and Zachs input plsr
