Ok so we recently purchased a 700+RwKw G6E Turbo,

And want to prep it for track days etc,

While keeping the Oil temps, and 

Therefore oil pressures at idle when hot all within range.

 

Oil temps over 150deg are not good for any oil,

And may be the reason many are experiencing low oil pressures at idle,

After giving their vehicles a hard time at event like powercruise,

And the like, with many complaining of low oil pressures as low a 5psi after a run.

 

Anyhow my thoughts are keeping everything in range like oil temps etc.,

Is sensible, after all we are making far more power than what these vehicles came out with.

 

After all f6's even had an oil cooler with only 310 KW at the engine.

 

Most on here are making far more than that.

 

So anyone got some good recommendations for Oil Coolers?

And part numbers of the sandwich plates etc?

 

What's everyone else using?

 

Cheers.

There's a few kit's around, 

Some seem pricey for what they are.

 

Have sussed that the derale 25782 sandwich plate should fit after reading what @aaronm has said about the subject.

Gotta figure out where to put the cooler due to surge tank etc.

 

There must be more kit's out there that what I have seen so far....
