I've got a twin cooler on my car but haven't hooked up the oil cooler part. Did you guys that have them remove the stock oil cooler or install the twincooler thermostat on top of it?

I'd either back off a few laps to drop temps or just go to the pits if backing off didn't work well enough. I recently did a reroute. Last month, when my oil temps hit 280*F, my water didn't go over 235*F. I consider that a minor victory.
Roadster,

If your radiator is for a 95 to 97 Roadster and you want to sell it contact me.

I kept the heat exchanger - I think it's a good idea. Brings oil temps up faster, keeps water from getting too hot. I should run 2 or three of them, only with the remote mount oil filter already on there, things are getting tights on the side of my motor.
