oil coolers
what oil coolers are the easiest to adapt to a custom civic turbo setup. I saw a starion oil cooler with lines for 40 bucks, should i go with that? Or buy a brand new one?
also i thought the oil return from the cooler should go to the turbo or the input from the turbo.
cooler turbo or cooler returned oil?
thanks!

Re:oil coolers
Would it be smart to just run one inline with the turbo intake or drain oil line?
I have a custom turbo on my eclipse, Most of the oil coolers that I have seen connect directly to the block.

Re:oil coolers
err
you can use a tranny cooler. i've got one i'm gunna use off my chevelle. it cooled a turbo hydrolic 400.
i'm gunna zip tie it to the radiator and have the oil return from the turbo go straight to the cooler then out the cooler to the oil pan.
zip ties work really good anyways, right now its zip tied to the radiator in my chevelle and nothings happend.

Re:oil coolers
hmm ya on return it should be fine but i don think you can send high PSi thru a tranny cooler. Would that not be enough flow fo the gravity feed oil drain off turbo?
how do i tell if i have a trany or oil cooler? All i know is its new and small
