Oil cooler shroud.
Not too long ago I finally installed an oil cooler. I put it in September maybe? Right before the cooler months, bad timing on my part. Though with the thermostat oil temps hovered around 175*. Warm up times in the winter wasn't quite as bad as I had anticipated.
What I did not anticipate is my fuel trims going out of whack due to the radiant heat throwing the temp sensor off. So all the hours I spent dialing in my maf temp compensations no longer works. My LTFT went from +- 2% to about +-6% at lower loads and speeds. Not horrible, but bad enough for me to want to correct it. Before I spend another minute staring at another log or table, I'd want to see what I can do on the hardware end to minimize the effect of the oil coolers heat on the sensors. My setup using various setrab and other parts pieced together with a central location behind the grill like most N/A setups. I suppose there is not too many ways to go about making a shroud, but I'd like to see what others have done. Materials used, size and shape of shroud panels and and mounting.

How does heat from oil cooler effect the temp sensor built in in your maf sensor inside the airbox?
if the maf measure hotter air.. it means it s sucking hotter air. if you are referring to the ambient temperature sensor, that doesn t have a role in fuel trims calculation and you can place it anyway in front of the oil cooler if you want it to measure the ambient sensor right |

It sounds like you have a different problem. Even with intercoolers, oil cooler and a big turbo my fuel trims aren't effected via radient heat.
-But, if your looking for shrouds the only one that comes to mind is the Harrop setup. It has a metal ducting to a slanted cooler and then holes drilled behind it in the plastic skid plate to exhale below the vehicle. There also a thread in the FI section called combating the heat that delves into that topic.

For some reason I thought there are some fueling additive tables that are ambient temp based? Maybe I've mistaken. Regardless. I'd like to add some heat shielding for the intake and ambient temp sensor before I make any changes to these tables. The lower vent behind the cooler sounds interesting. So the cooler core has the top tilted rearward? Can you link the thread? Gracias!

ambient sensor has no influence on airflow calculation, only the intake air temp sensor

I'm in RomRaider now looking for this table that I thought existed.. It's been a while. Current tune's been solid for 3 years until I added the oil cooler. No drivability and performance issues. I just dont like seeing LTFT above 2%. lol

then put 14.7 in closed loop and you ll have 0% all the time lol
There is a table anyway for airflow compensation, but it looks at intake air temp |

haha.. You know what I mean. I've spent way too much time on the Intake air temp compensation table to have it work perfect until now. I suppose if I have it down so good I'd only have to adjust the rows above 100* and lower airflow values. Sound like you are talking about this table?

i don remember the name in romraider as i use mostly ecutek, anyway i don t tweak it much because i trust STFT and CL fuel correction in ecutek to fix my afr, after a good maf scaling.. and i disable LTFT totally

That being said. I am working on building a duct for my oil cooler, but mostly to get better airflow to the front side. I have a bunch of thin gauge stainless out of the scrap bin at work. Will be tig'ing it all together hopefully this weekend.

Is your oil cooler not effective enough or you're just looking to improve it?

my corrections stay always around +-1%, or even less most of the time And during the normal closed loop, i disable LTFT, but if I enable it, i usually have it around +-1% Ecutek is so much superior in everything, and it logs at 5x the speed of tactrix/OFT I have 789 reflashes on my Ecu, so i know what you go through don t worry... if I had to go back to open source I would sell the car instead of going through the frustration lol |

It's mounted to the under tray and the lip on the bumper cover is blocking a good 1/3 of it. I am getting much higher temps then most people are reporting with a cooler. Going to move it up to the crash bar and build a duct to help funnel more air into it. I don't like it on the under tray anyway as I am afraid an off track will damage it or tear it off.
