Airtec Motorsport oil cooler kit for the Mini Cooper S R56 (turbo), developed for modified vehicles that struggle to maintain stable oil temperatures during track use or sporty street driving.
This kit was developed in the United Kingdom based on extensive experience with performance oil cooling systems for both street and track cars. The challenge lay in integrating a large external oil cooler which is optimally positioned in the airflow, without compromising fit and ease of installation.
The oil cooler is mounted behind the top grille, where direct airflow is available for maximum cooling. In combination with the included billet aluminum take-off adapter and high-quality piping, this ensures a significant reduction in oil temperatures under load.
The kit consists of a proven 13-row AIRTEC Motorsport oil cooler, An laser-cut and black powder-coated mounting bracket and high-quality braided oil lines with Aerotec couplingsAll necessary mounting materials and a clear assembly manual are included for immediate installation.
NB:
• For assembly, slight adjustment of the top grille required.
• This is a motorsport product; a slight increase in engine resonance in the interior may be noticeable.
