Also, the bracket for the cooler, did that come with the kit? Have to do anything to it to get it to fit?

This will not work with most large intercoolers.For BA BF look at the PWR one. I copied theirs and did my own with fan and thermostat.

slygary Member 31 Member For: 12y 4m 1d Gender: Male Location: Geelong Posted 30/04/14 08:59 AM Author Share Posted 30/04/14 08:59 AM The oil cooler kit cost me $650 - $700. The sandwich adapter, hose and fittings are all from eBay. The oil cooler is SETRAB witch I got through work being in the radiator industrial cooling industries, they are top quality great product. The bracket I custom made and designed myself at work, also the rubber mounts on the bracket are a must to soak up vibrations. It just fits in behind the grill with 2-3 mm clearance. I put it behind the grill to get a natural air flow which is the coolest. And yes arronm if you have the larger stepped intercooler nothing will fit behind the grill. When I was doing my research into doing this I seen a couple people mounted them under the car somewhere or behind the bumper and did not have a fan like above. That's a great oil cooler kit arronm.

At least it would be out of the engine bay & the other associated heat there Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85396-engine-oil-cooler-kit-i-made/#findComment-1468525 Share on other sites More sharing options...
