Re: Turbo Gallery
Jason, did you have a 96 plate plus fan or just passive air flow? Is the small Setrab working out? I think you said on the samba that it was working even better. Just curious if you ran a fan before.

Re: Turbo Gallery
Steve, I didn't run a fan with the 96-plate oil cooler, just passive airflow. I would estimate the 96-plate had better airflow based on where it was located compared to the Setrab. The Setrab is really compact, but it is a much better design, and so far it seems to work great without the fan.

Re: Turbo Gallery
Nice! How well does the 911 cool compared to the old 36hp set up?

I didn't have thermocouples on the old set-up so I couldn't tell you. FWIW, the 911 shroud hasn't been a walk in the park... http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=372579shag55 wrote:Nice! How well does the 911 cool compared to the old 36hp set up?

Re: Turbo Gallery

Re: Turbo Gallery
Looks nice 2165 Turbo Rail! Welcome back to the fun!
Back in '03 not everybody had cell phones either but they seem to have taken over the human interaction of todays world. Turbo's are a lot more fun though in my opinion.

Re: Turbo Gallery
I'm getting ready to put my engine in. Converted from draw through to blow through. The car has been down nine months so I miss it.

Re: Turbo Gallery
Looks good! I bet you can't wait to be back on the road. I can't imagine having my car down for that long.
