tt oil cooler

i know there is a check in the system so oil wont flow through the oil cooler unless there is sufficient oil pressure. Now this cools the engine oil or is it just a cooler for the turbochargers oil? i looked at the service manual but there is no mention of these, maybe i missed something...

It's for the engine oil.

And just so you are aware, the oil that flows through the turbos and the engine are one in the same, they aren't separate systems, so technically it's for both.

And if you want to add an accusump to the system, do so as recommended by accusump themselves. Though seems pointless unless you are doing some hard road racing or have a purpose built high high performance motor. So if this is a stock engine, might not be worth the money.

yeah, ill need it now, building a track/drag car... easier than a dry sump. Plus its cheap and easy insurance(better safe than sorry), also i can use the pressure on start up to prevent dry starts, especially after winter storage
