Looking for the correct front oil cooler, preferable Setrab, to mount in front. The Patrick Motorsports one is 21.5 x 4.25, so I am guessing that is the maximum size I can go. Looking for a cheaper or direct alternative rather than spend $450 on the PMS one.

Diesel cars coolers tend to get really dirty which reduces oil cooling,petrol cars to a much lesser extent. |

Used coolers cost $75-150 + ship to get it clean and you are still risking your engine if something gets loose and travels through the oil path. |
