335i oil cooler kits

boostfreak · 10-29-2008, 08:22 PM

I know there are a few of them out there, but has anyone had back to back runs on a dyno, done on the same day to prove they work? I see some data, but they are tested on different days which could alter results drastically

Why would anyone have dynos with different oil coolers?
Oil coolers don't give you power.
They are there to help cool the oil, which will help with cooling the engine.

Don't think of OCs as the same as ICs.

Ditto to what Mr.5 said.

Do you mean intercooler?

No, the purpose of the dyno runs is to log oil temp & how much the new oil cooler set-up actually reduced temps by. I am skeptical about the kits out there because they have no data of what it does to oil temp compared to stock set-up

You don't need a dyno to log oil temps.
This would be a waste of money to pay for dyno time to only log oil temps.
You can do this with regular driving.

Maybe you can hit up the oil cooler companies and see if they have anything that they can show you.

how would you log oil temps at the dyno ? By using big fan ? how accurate will it be ?

Get data from people with oil coolers. See how much of a temp drop they have experienced.

You aren't going to see crap for HP on the dyno. Where you will see a huge improvement with our oil cooler kit is in oil temperatures on the track.
