Z2TT Member 714 Member For: 12y 11m 2d Posted 21/08/15 05:56 AM Share Posted 21/08/15 05:56 AM When I spoke to a tuner here in Perth, Monstatorque they said that the stock exchanger is fine for cooling performance and one of their high HP cars still uses it and runs fine.Could it be just bad batches of coolers out there which is the reason some last for ages and some fail quickly?Even though millions of cars use oil to air coolers, these are on the radiator which sits on rubber grommets Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91012-fg-heat-exchanger-genuine-vs-aftermarket-egpwr/page/4/#findComment-1558928 Share on other sites More sharing options...
