Racingline Oil Cooling Kit (VWR18G700)

WHY FIT AN OIL COOLER KIT?

Under hard driving, the stock oil cooler is easily overwhelmed. Failures start to occur when oil cannot dissipate its collected heat fast enough and the oil begins to thin and degrade – losing its lubrication properties.

The RacingLine kit solves this problem: by adding in an additional air to oil cooler positioned right in the airflow in the front of the car, oil temperatures are reduced by around 15  – 20   degrees centigrade (of course dependant on how the car is being used, ambient temps and state of tune).

Our kit retains the factory oil to water cooler and adds to it with the front-mounted cooler – doubling up your cooling capability with less heat transfer into the water system.

As the oil moves away from the heat inside the engine, its temperature drops significantly as it is pumped through the densely packed fins of the 10-row cooler’s large surface area mounted right in the cool airflow.

Supplied as a complete kit with every part ready for straightforward install.

HIGH EFFICIENCY COOLER

Our 10-row stacked plate design efficiently forces the hot oil through a series of aluminium pressed plates. Heat dissipates as cold air moves across the plates.

PRESSURE CONTROL

Our unique sandwich plate oil take-off includes a clever internal pressure-control valve control to direct oil flow through the cooler at correct flow/volume.

PRECISION MACHINED

Precision machined billet components utilising

the latest 5 Axis CNC machines for perfect accuracy, first time, every time.

210 SERIES BRAIDED HOSE

Our oil lines feature an attractive outer nylon braid strengthened by a stainless steel inner weave for maximum resilience. Protective external sheath avoids any rubbing damage in use.

COLD AIR LOCATION

The front-mount location brackets of the RacingLine cooler kit places it in the optimum airflow and ensures that oil temperature drops and excess heat is funnelled out efficiently.

HIGH-FLOW FILTER

The kit includes a pretty special high-flowing oil filter. Made from stainless steel micronic filter cloth with magnetic pre-filtering, capable of flowing 5x more oil than the factory paper filter.

 

PRECISION ENGINEERED FOR PERFECT PERFORMANCE.

Left-hand threaded oil filter housing top for easy (and clean) oil changes

Stainless steel micronic high-flow filter included in each kit. Supplied separately for oil changes

T6 6061 CNC aluminium used throughout for precision accurate fit

Billet gloss-anodised for long-lasting protection and good looks

Adaptor plate locates under oil filter with pressure-control valving to divert oil flow around new cooling system.

 

OIL COOLER FITMENT.

As you’d expect, the RacingLine Oil Cooler is a beautifully detailed complete kit, developed exclusively for the EA888.3 engine.

The system is designed for straightforward fitting and ultimate reliability. Everything needed for perfect fitment is included.

Unlike some oil cooler kits, with the RacingLine Performance kit there is no need to remove the intake manifold to access oil galleries for a feed in and out of the engine.

Our clever oil filter adapter enables the oil cooler sandwich plate to be installed underneath the current oil filter housing on all EA888.3 engines – just screw off and replace.

This sandwich plate includes an integral pressure relief valving system to protect the system from pressure spikes.

10 row stacked-plate oil cooler radiator, flowed to obtain maximum heat dissipation without undue pressure drop.

Optimum front mounted location behind front lower grill aperture with all necessary brackets and fixing kit supplied.

210 Series stainless steel, nylon braided feed and return lines run past the chassis leg into the bumper cavity, then connecting to the oil cooler core.
