Oil Cooler Kits
Even in stock form, water-cooled VW engines run excessive oil temperatures. It is not uncommon for a Golf to reach temperatures of 260F, even in the normally aspirated conditions. There is a point in almost any engine that high temperatures will start to cause power loss. An oil cooler kit can help by giving you some thermal reserve in those high heat/stress situations. All our kits include a thermostatic adapter plate to allow oil to reach operating temperatures quickly and not to undercool the engine. Oil coolers are mounted in front of the radiator, using brackets. On the VR6 and A3 models we locate the cooler in the fender area using a front air duct to feed cool air. These conversions are ideal for hot climates or continuous, high power output. Available for all ND Turbosystems models also.

ND's customer oil cooler kits include.

  • Thermostatic sandwich plate, 10-19 row oil cooler
  • Aeroquip steel braided rubber coated (blue) high pressure lines with steel cadmium plated ends, and completely assembled.
  • Mounting brackets and complete instructions with illustrations.

    Proven Performance
    At the buttonwillow Raceway in June '96, we verified the efficiency of our VR6 units. Non-oil cooled VR6's ran in the 310F-320F degree range, while our two VR6 models with the ND oil cooler kit ran in the 260F-280F degree range(acceptable considering the extreme heat and track driving conditions) This was with 105F degree ambient temperatures.
       
    From the manufacturer
    The Mocal and Setrab oil coolers are designed to provided the maximum amount of cooling oils of varying viscosity's by the use of air flow at ambient temperatures, while still utilizing the smallest amount of space with only a minimum amount of pressure drop. The cooler consists of a variable number of plates forming oil-ways. These oil-ways contain "turbulators" to break down boundary layer effects in the flow and to obtain maximum heat dissipation without undue pressure build-up. The oil-ways are interspaced with corrugations to provide airways, formed top promote turbulence in the air flow. The entire unit is made in aluminum and all parts brazed together. Each unit is tested by air under water to a pressure of 170 p.s.i. and sample put through exhaustive tests to ensure their suitability for vehicle use under all conditions.

    The performance of the cooler is dependent upon the design of the "turbulators" and airways. It is only extensive research in this area allied to considerable experience of operating conditions that has enabled us to produce a range of coolers giving the greatest heat dissipation for their size and weight yet available.
