Plan was to wash n clean area but rain clouds were gathering and wanted to get it done, it's an easy job to remove battery & tray so I'll add it to the future to do list.
This is the IPD auto oil cooler, purchased in US$, so it's not cheap, about $640 landed.
Yes there's cheaper around but the positives out weigh the costs as far as I'm concerned in this case.
I wouldn't bother with an inline filter, just replace oil every two years or so.
Its just such a well thought out neat system. It over rides the cost for me at least.
Positives.
1. Direct air flow from front of car not second hand or redirected.
2. Well thought out & measured/engineered mounting points.
3. Nothing thrown away from original system, just added extra effecient system.
4. Qiuck, easy install.
5. Swedish made cooler, USA made mounting brackets
Negatives.
1. Cost, but if ever the Aus$ improved absolute no brainer.
There are cheaper ways but doubt they are as effecient.
