any one in vic wants to installed a kit I can supply all the parts (including a inline thermostat) and from there offer an off the shelf kit for others.

installed oil cooler infront of intercooler and drove around a bit watching temperature.

i cut into the top line and plumb the cooler inbetween. so the line from top of cooler returns to top of tranny. the other goes to ac. so because the cooler reachs 70c id say that might be why the ac isnt working.

so i think i might move it somewhere else

btw i have crd
