Final Review After 2 years of daily driving and track driving
At the end of the day this oil cooler had a number of issues:
-The position of the cooler pushes the wheel liner into the wheel. The rubbing isn't terrible, but it causes a burning smell during regular driving and especially when doing tight turns like in a parking garage.
-After 2 years of tinkering I was never able to get the oil leak problem 100% solved, but it never got worse. (Dribbles of oil at most).
-Even with adding the fog light vent, the position of the oil cooler did not allow enough air flow to keep my oil temps in the safe range under heavy track use. On hot days I would have oil temps as high as 120 deg C, which is into the danger zone for our oil.
Bottom Line
For these issues I am switching to another oil cooler. In the end I give this cooler a 3/10, because it just didn't get the job done.
