I knew that was going to be the next question....
Give me a few days and I will get some good pics of the cooler and the specs off the invoice. I think the most compelling thing was the oil pressure differences and my gut tells me that is the baffle mods that were done. I just had a stock EBS baffle and I was having pressure problems in a few corners at WSIR and then after the baffle mods and oil cooler they were gone. Pressures before got in to the mid to high teens in the problem corners and then I never got below 30-35 in the same places. I know that you have to be really careful and also analyze if I was on or off the throttle at those times also when making that determination. When I overlaid laps from before and after the pressure problem I had no less than 4000 RPM's in those same corners. Of particular note I have also learned it is important to know where those temperature readings are coming from and also where the pressure is read. I had an extra sensor installed and it reads these temps/pressures from the main bearing. It is my understanding that the stock sensor reads them from the oil pan.
That being said...I am by no means a Motec expert and am still a rookie in this hobby/sport and learning every day/time on the track. There are many others on this forum that know WAY more than I ever will. These are just my "rookie" findings. I know there are a ton of variables and nobody has the exact answer to this problem.
I want everyone to know I'm not an expert or claim to be one. Just want to share what I have learned about this issue thus far. I was fortunate to have a data system in the car before and after to make these comparisons.
I will follow up with some pictures and the specs on the oil cooler shortly.
