Default Oil coolers? (Tried searching)

The search on this site kind of sucks, so bear with me if it has been covered already.

I want to cool the oil in my boost b16 setup, but I am not sure how. It seems like I could use a small radiator type thing and put it on my oil return line, but I am not sure where I would get such a thing. Any one?

don't put it on your oil return unless you want to build a smoke machine

Wanna keep your oil temp cooler? Run the coolant lines to your turbo...(if you have them) Otherwise, you have to run it in the pressure line that goes to the turbo...

lol what are you talking about, the oil return is the ideal place to put it for an extra 20 horses.






















j/k, the oil feed is where you run the oil cooler inline from.

Alright, what should I use to on the feed line to get the cooling going? I don't want anything on my rig to be incomplete, at all, so I'm going to put an oil cooler on it.
