After much anticipation the Achtuning Oil Cooler Group Buy is ready to accept orders! I've spoken to Josh at great length, and he has assured me that all the components are ready for shipment, and that no one will be charged until their kit ships.

This kit features:

- A high-quality Setrab oil cooler core, properly sized for the 2.7t
- 190F thermostat (perfect to ensure that the oil gets up to operating temp & has time to burn off moisture)
- Stainless steel hoses 10AN size, precut and assembled, with protective cover around the core support area (where it passes through to the adapter)
- Oil filter sandwich adapter is ported for better flow
- Will also include a very small bracket to hold it against the bottom of the AC Condenser
- This kit will fit B5 S4�s and 2.8 v6 models. A6 and B5 1.8t versions will be ready soon.

Josh has been running this kit on an Achtuning B5 S4 for several months with excellent results. At a recent S4 Challenge oil temps failed to breach 225f, despite 116f ambient temps! In normal driving oil temps stay around 200f, perfect to ensure happy turbos and and dry oil. (In case you didn�'t know, burning the moisture out of motor oil is critical to ensure that the oil performs its lubricating duties. This moisture is the result of cold starts and is completely normal.)

Group Buy Details:

- $425, including shipping. This is a $100 savings from the $495 retail price (+shipping)!!!
- No one will be charged until their kit ships.
- This group buy is limited to the first 50 people who contact me. (public AT sterling247 DOT com)
- The group buy closes on June 17th.
- Kits will ship as soon as orders are received. This means your kit will ship ASAP, and you won�'t have to wait until the GB closes.

This kit is the perfect way to ensure that your turbos stay cool (a must for those in southern states and/or anyone considering tracking their car) and will help to improve longevity of any turbo. Also, this kit will help lower coolant temps and IAT's. Anyone interested in preserving their K03 car or extracting the most from a Stage III setup should seriously consider this kit!

Be sure to get in on this great deal before the GB closes!

Here a stack of custom-machined aluminum brackets awaits shipment!

Here you can see how the bracket mounts to the fan support brace.

Similar to the last photo, you can here see exactly how the unit mounts in front of the AC condenser. (Please note that the fittings on your unit will be black/silver, not red/blue as seen in this photo.)
