Think this guy may be fulla BS but had a 2.7 with no tin and claimed no matter how hard he ran it, the temp never topped 210. Had no front mounted cooler, just the engine mount cooler.
So is he full of it, or are the rest of us stoopid? (No Rick, you be the stoopid one for not calling his BS) |

I always figured that Porsche wouldn't spend the money on things if they didn't have to, so I'd recommend both the tins and a front oil cooler. The lack of front coolers on the US bound 2.7s were probably contributing to the issues they had ( the European 2.7s did have front oil coolers, though just the rude entry trombones).
