So difference of (this NA) made Oil Cooler kit versus JR FI Oil cooler kit is what, mainly just the bracketing? As for if a customer bought this, then went to their SC kit what all would they expect to buy/change? It's fantastic they are having this option indeed!
I can see others that have (XYZ) Turbo or SC also being interested in this product as there are not exactly many thermostatic controlled well made OC kits out there oddly enough, so this question could be expanded to (what would it take to adopt to XYZ kit etc?...)

In addition to the Thermostatic plate, the 9 series Setrab core is rated for about 35,000 BPU/hr (27,000-39,000 based on flow and placement). Most of the units on the market currently are around 27,000 BTU/hr, and are just barely handling the load of NA applications on track. |

That is cool. So if someone has a Vortech, or say a FBM kit etc,,,, they would need to then specify the FI version is all to get the longer lines etc by sounds of things?
JR I can say is impressive with bringing out options that is for sure.

Other FI kits would need to verify fitment before ordering. If their FMIC's dont occupy the same space, then the NA version would be the better solution (it places the oil cooler more centered for maximum cooling). The challenge is that most FI kits don't consider space for an oil-air cooler, so a custom solution is needed, or an oil-water heat exchanger. To me, having the FMIC in front of the oil cooler makes sense; if you damage the oil cooler with a rock, it can be catastrophic. If you damage a FMIC, you get a boost leak which doesn't cause major issues. |

Not knowing really anything about oil coolers this looks like a great product. The two questions that come to mind are 1) does the oil still flow normally through the oil filter without any dead spots, in other words maintaining full filtration? and 2) is the oil pressure in the block maintained at the same level as before? Thanks in advance!

2. There is a measureable, but insignificant pressure drop, as with any oil cooler setup. |

I've seen it happen on track.
Rock hits oil cooler. Oil cooler springs leak. Oil comes out quick at 50-80 psi. Leaves oil trail on track, car loses oil pressure, engine oil starves, spins a bearing. Oil trail on track gets other cars dirty, and sometimes a bunch of cars flying off if its at a turn. You want to always have something guarding your oil cooler, whether its a grill, or mesh, or honeycomb. |
