Dear all sifu suggestion.
i'm using AE101 with stock BT 20v,planing to install relocation oil filter kit and oil cooler in my car.But some of people said if fix the oil cooler kit on stock engine oil presure will be reduce and no power at all. dear all sifu can give suggestion.:nurse:

thanks!
 
yeahhhhhh,, oil cooler.. on my way to do it. haha

come talk it..

i also heard ppl said pressure will drop once installed oil cooler n relocation kit.

but i think if the oil cooler size is not really too big ( i planning use 9 rows oil cooler from mitsubishi) and piping dun too long .. pressure will not drop so much ..

any experienced user to share here.. ahhah
 
i heard the relocate will drop much presure than just add in oil cooler. I not sure it true or not... but me also planed to Bolt on Oil Cooler too.

I support what you say! The longer the hose and the bigger the cooler, then more pressure will drop! Keep it short and just enough big! Dun go overboard!
 
yeahhhhhhhhhhhh..... i customing it .. hop will nice.. haha

my svt also not power much.. drop a bit pressure no worry for me.. ahhahahaha
 
yup if instal oil cooler, with stock oil pump, the pressure sure will drop.
some more if with relocation kit lagi kao kao drop:biggrin:
 
so 7, => install oil cooler => install relocation kit => upgrade oil pump ?
 
nothin to do with fuel pressure regulator..tat's juz the fuel pressure into combustion.

i've been using it for 2 yrs now, quite a big ass cooler...positioned to juz behind the grill and the filter beside the radiator. yeap..oil pressure will drop, but no significant power drop. if you install it, better install along oil pressure and oil temp meter for you to monitor it, and if you not sure if the pressure is acceptable, juz post it up here for feedback.

big ass cooler:biggrin:like chu one ah? with that big cooler, maximum can go ho many bar?

yup agreed with wat u said, oil press and oil temp meter is important after installed oil cooler.
 
chu's one if i not mistaken was 5 very long rows, mine is 13 rows although not as long. so it's juz the dimension diff. max i can only do 6bar..:(

this sunday track day..u got go?? hehe

yup im installed oil cooler and upgraded oil pump, just tarak relocation kit only:biggrin:

I installed an oil cooler to my 3S recently but I did not upgrade my oil pump. How do I up grade my oil pump, 7 ? Pls teach me. Buy ready made or modify the original ?

How to know if the oil pressure is below par w/o the oil press meter ? I mean is there any symptoms or tell tale signs ? Coz even if I install an oil press meter now, I wouldn't know what's my original pressure anymore. So far, the only difference I noticed is that it takes much longer time & distance to warm up the engine.


I also intend to install oil cooler to my BT, infact already bought the adapter, just no time to do it yet.

its ok to reduce the pressure a bit while idling....
"no power at all".. i don think so lah. go on, fix ur oil cooler, like all the taiko said, make sure u have the gauge's to monitor the press and the temp. have a cooool day
