Default I've looked but can't find the answers...

I was wondering if the oil cooler for a 911 would fit into our cars. There are a couple I've seen floating around various "for sale" adds lately, and was curious if this was a viable option for the TT. If anybody knows, it would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Default oil cooler question..>>>

is an oil cooler the equivalent as an intercooler is to intake temp? does a lower oil temp mean less lost hp?

Default Sort of...

It also accounts for an increase in lifespan for many components of the car (like the turbo system) when driven hard (i.e. track use). Most people will tell you that like you stated with the intercooler, it's not about increasing horses with this type of mod, it's about losing less by gaining efficiency/stability in the system. I'm primarily interested in keeping the whole system cool because I do track the car, and by the end of the day, those engine and oil temps can get pretty hot (which results in a loss of power/efficiency in the system). It's preventative maintenance for me as well (which is just a good excuse for spending more on mods.

Default Personally>>>

in dealing with a few porsches, the best bet may be to buy a oil cooler kit...these guys package it nicely and all the fittings are gorgeous!<ul><li><a href="http://www.batinc.net">http://www.batinc.net</a</li></ul>
