No. The JR kit is, though. Not sure if KW is going for CARB cert also.

I guess it will depend on what the user has in mind for the application. Many are going to be keeping this car 4k+ when driving it for performance~ boost at 2k would be nice, but you can't have everything.

It's been a few months, and is not CARB.

@gmsii: any updates on CARB?

choi0706 · 01-28-2014, 04:27 PM

anyone know if this fits with the OEM DIT oil cooler?

KraftWerks · 01-29-2014, 03:04 PM

We are still working on getting the kit CARB approved, as soon as we have a progress report we will update everyone.

@KraftWerks

When will you have a oil cooler for the engine oil that will work 100% with your layout? I'm asking cause this is definetely part of my decision choice when going to FI this spring/summer. I want to be able to get OC and all I need when it is time.

Not sure. I'd love to know which oil coolers are compatible with the kraftwerks sc. Leaning towards the robispec, but would still like to weigh my options.

Have you guys seen this thread? http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=50427

It's a DIY, using a Subaru Forester oil cooler. Looks to be a compact, lightweight and inexpensive solution. Also, less lines running up to the bumper, and less things to block airflow. We're talking IC, OC, SC OC, AC, Rad- all in one place :S

I'm thinking with an upgraded radiator, this could be a great, and inexpensive solution, that uses mainly OEM parts.

We are in the process of getting our vendor status put back on (had to renew) but in the meantime please feel free to pm or post and we will get you the info you need for a kit.

We are one of the largest kraftwerks dealers around. We also install them and are looking forward to getting some done on the FT86 platform.

Ok well since KW is not answering can you find out the ETA of their Engine Oil Cooler kit please? Due to the bracketing design of the KW SC it's not like you can slap any ol Oil Cooler in there and call it a day. I realize they are selling kits as is, but seems shitty to me that there has been no recent updates or announcements to discuss where this Oil Cooler is at, CARB certification, other new to come items.... also when the kits will in fact ship with toothed pulleys....(BIG QUESTION TO)

Was told via phone 6-8 weeks out and expect MSRP to be close/around $600.

6-8 weeks from now? 600 bones if it fits perfect and works perfect is pricey but not crazy against Full Blowns etc...

Ocho Seis · 02-28-2014, 10:45 AM

i think Kw is coming out with a mounting bracket so you can use an aftermarket oil cooler , I was told it should be out next week ...

Th came straight from Joe at KW ....
