Default Solved! Greddy Twin Turbo oil temps 220 on track

After a lot of money, blood, sweat and tears it looks like we have the oil temp issue managed. On a very hot 98deg day in Nashville we put the new cooling system to the test. I was able to run the entire 15gal fuel cell out without any drama. I have no doubt we will be able to manage up to 500whp on track with this system.

NASCAR heat exchange radiator
NASCAR air to oil cool
Remote oil filter
-10 oil lines
Custom fab shroud
Modified cooler arrangement
Modified bumper cover
14 quarts of oil !!!

This is the coolest the car has ever run. The Z sustained 260 oil temps before the turbos with 2 coolers, and limp mode with one. We knew going in that the biggest challenge for the Greddys would be the oil cooling. So this a huge step forward. Back to the fun stuff... Easing the boost up and sorting the chassis.
