how do i know what my turob temp is. i just bought new bigger i/c and i want to test the temp with the stock i/c's so i can compaire the new ones. is this possible. these are the i/c i got any info or feedback would be great. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SMIC-...spagenameZWDVW

 

the IC isnt going to change your oil temp persay, it just drops the intake air temp. u need a better oil cooler if u wanna change/drop your "turbo" oil temps.
but with the factory oil cooler i run anywhere form 200-225/230 depending on driving condition and current outside temperature, with an aftermarket/RS4 oil cooler i think they pretty much just stay at 200ish at all times.

 

let us know how they work when you get them on

 

i def will let you know, i amgetting all the parts together for stage 2+.i would like to put every thing on all at once for moreshock when i drive for the first time. i hope the new i/c are going to be= if not better than the rs4's [].they are bigger....

 

those intercoolers are priced very reasonably. Let me know what your results are. Im gonna try to get some evolution racewerks side-mounts early next year and do them the same time as downpipes. I like noticing a big difference too.

I was looking at oilcoolers as well. Achtuning has the RS4 kit for $1300, thats a bit more than i want to spend. Iv seen them on forums for sale for maybe around $700. If anyone knows any good alternatives i would love an alternate suggestion.

 

I would not waste you $$, they are only very slightly bigger then stock, & don't use a very good core. If you want cheap SMIC's get the IPP or RS4 ones. Do it right or don't bother

It will NOT change your oil temp at all!!!! The only way to change the temp is use a very high quality oil, & get an oil cooler.

I have the RS4 oil cooler, & my oil NEVER gets past 210deg.

 

2k nice to see you posting

 

well that suck because they are shipped, and i did the math befor i ordered them and they were 35% bigger than stock and 28% bigger than the rs4's (i think)so we will see. i wll let you know i hope to get at least 10-15 hp. thanks, but a little to late.

 

Avalon motor sports has a realley nice oil cooler
