Steve @ 1 Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 If your going turbo then I'd deff recomend fitting one along with a 70°C thermostat. As for oil try silkolene Pro S 10w50 great stuff. Get if from OPIE oils as you get a discount. Link to post Share on other sites
FishWick 21 Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 No different with a turbo and yep I use a Mocal cooler. Before turbo with mocal = 96 - 98 deg at 80mph cruise. After turbo with mocal = 96-98 deg at 80mph cruise.Before mocal - 114 deg cruise at 80mph I use Silkolene Pro S 10W/50 oil. Link to post Share on other sites
