Guys Question

Will adding a ram air tube from the front of my grill blowing right onto my oil cooler help keep oil temps down?

Has anyone tried it?

Your oil cooler is already ducted.

E90ice · 01-22-2008, 01:55 PM

I agree with the Super-Car list, except for the RS4 being there.

As far as i can see the duct only runs onto the breaks, the cooler looks covered with plastic covers?

Just curious, what do people in South Africa do for a living to accumulate the amount of wealth required to own those cars? I'm sure they carry quite a premium over somewhere like the US as well (335's are probably $65USD+?) I never thought of SA as a particularly wealthy nation but I don't really know, just my perception. That run sounds like something that would happen in Dubai!

Well just like many countries there is LOTS of wealth and also lots of people without. But most of the people coming are self employed. Just as an example my 335 coupe sport cost me $78 000. I think the sedan is about $65 000.
