Z1 Full Flow Oil Cooler, Yea or Nay

[okami2_17]

Hey guys, I'm upgrading the oil cooler on my TT 92 and I was considering the Z1 full flow kit. Any with this installed and can give some ratings. The build isn't finished as yet but I'm expecting around 500+rwhp. Also I was wonder whether to go with a standard oil sandwich or a thermostatic. I live in the Caribbean with average daily temps of around 33 Celsius. Plus I allow my engine to get up to temp before diving so I was thinking the thermostatic may be unnecessary. Any feedback would be great. Thanks!

The thermostatic stock unit is the ideal way to go.

If you have original tt just get bigger oil cooler unit and use stock lines....since they are termostatic right?

Stock oil cooler is not thermostatic, it uses restrictors in the rubber lines. If going full flow cooler, get a thermostatic sandwich plate adapter.

That changes a lot...i was just planing to get bigger cooler
I gues ill have to block stock oil lines
Who makes a direct bolton thermostatic sandwich plate?
Ebay ones look all diferent and in description they fit all jap cars lol

The stock thermostatic oil tree should be fine for your power goals.
