More cooling and larger cooler. 24 row (from what i have read) is plenty for a weekend or DD. Even tracking the car the 24 should suffice in keeping the oil cool.
I just installed mine this weekend and kit that Jack from RPW sent me was easy and seamless. I didnt get the "per piece" and went with the
universal kit as it was cheaper. You just need to make sure when ordering, that you order the 90 degree elbow coming off the oil cooler. I ended up spending $16 a piece retail vs $11 a piece had i gotten them from RPW.
I would rate this install as a 3 out of 10 in difficulty for the average DIY'er.
Mod's instructions were right on the
ONLY THING I WOULD MENTION is the plate that you need to fabricate be only 3 inches wide. From the original picture it looks much bigger (like 6 inches wide).
I used a $6 deck flashing plate from Lowes and used an angle grinder to get it down to size. The plate is 16 gauge and has plenty of strength to not bend against wind pressure spray paint it black and make your mounting holes.
I have not ran the car yet so i cannot state how well the kit works but i will once i fire it up and check for leaks.
