Ordered the smaller setrab unit with fan to replace the oil cooler that was installed when I bought the car (pictures). The new setrab unit is way smaller than I thought it would be. In fact, it's about half the size of what's installed now. I'm pretty sure the bigger setrab unit with the double fans is too big for this space. Anyone see issues if I run two of these smaller units in series? That way I can install them staggered and will fit in that space quite nicely.

Cool setup, I was thinking of doing an NACA duct on my rockers to do something similar when I install my Setrab/Spall combination as well.
On a side-note, what exhaust/heat exchanger setup is that? Very nice. And I guess that the 2270 is tuned well to have those temps...good stuff. |

It's the Tangerine 1 5/8 header into an EVO II silencer. It sounds pretty amazing actually. That little box is the Tangerine heat exchanger. As far as tune, I'm still working out some bugs in the idle circuit of the Dells, but the temps on the 2270 are great. Low 300's on the CHT if I'm putzing around town, if I'm really gentle it doesn't even break 300. Unless I spend significant amounts of time driving in anger, it doesn't ever approach 400. I'm just worried my oil temps are too low, so that I'm not getting proper lubrication in the engine. |
