Anyone have any pictures of a stock 3.6 oil cooler? I'm just curious what kind of surface area Porsche decided was necessary to cool that engine.

I was unclear. I know they're external. I was wondering what external/up-front oil coolers were run in a stock 3.6.

So it looks like what Andy posted is two stock coolers running in tandem. What's the thing on the right?

Like I said.....I used a stock Carrera wheel well cooler and found that the temps were a bit higher than "optimal"....so I added a 30 row Mocal cooler in the front.
I also plan on installing a full time fan on the cooler in the wheel well. Street temps are fine but on a hot track day the temps can get up there. |
