Larger Oil Cooler Fitment

TrackRat · 09-15-2010, 08:03 PM

In need of an oil cooler for my Z. Interested in Stillen's 25 row unit. Any issues with fitment with the Gen 3 intakes?

I believe the 25 is ok, the 34 row Setrab core would be a very tight fit. The AE Performance unit fits even though it is larger as it mounts sideways.

No issue on fitment at all, including with our transmission cooler and power steering cooler..

If cooling is really a concern, with the addition of our urethane front fascia, the addition of a secondary oil cooler with the 25-row is possible taking air in from the side scoop area.

We've never had anyone go into limp mode with the street 19-row cooler on the track, but if you're pushing temperatures, that's why we have the 25-row 'race' cooler available, and will undoubtedly sustain you for everything you can throw at it.

If you are a driver that really pushes the car hard you will hit limp mode with a small cooler on tracks that have lots of wide open throttle. If you track the 25 row cooler is a minimum IMO.

^ Kind of what I was thinking... if you're going to go through the expense and effort why wouldn't you just upgrade for the $100 or so...
