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. |

I wonder how much difference the temps would have been if they were water cooled as well. Love to see some pictures my friend.

I am at the point where I will need to work on keeping the oil cool. I would love more details. Thanks for donating "a lot of money, blood, sweat and tears " for this. All eyes are on you my friend. Keep up the good work. I too would love pictures.
Thanks |

We are cleaning up the install a little now, I,ll post some as is pics in the AM. My GFs on my *** now...
Also working on a solution for the street and light track use cars with AC. Should be a more DYI application. Will not offer quite the same level of performance as the full race set up, but allow the use of the factory condenser and radiator. For half the cost. |

Hey Patrick... I'm not familliar with his system. Maybe we can catch up at CMP or VIR in the next few weeks... You can get some good shoots of what we have going on. We are looking at how we are going to package this up now, to take all the guessing out of it. And... I still want to do a test at 10-11 psi boost. May still want to step the radiator up, before I would put my name on it!
