On a 206 however, anywhere in the front grille will be adequate I'd imagine

on a 206 i would be tempted to put it behind the upper grilles, would look cool i would think
Need to find a Twin pass intercooler for mine,

That's suggesting get rid of as much heat as possible. Overcooling the oil is very undesirable.

Thats why you use a sandwich plate with a thermostat in it (as mentioned) to prevent over cooling.

#23: Re: Oil Cooler Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Tue Nov 22, 2011 11:49 am ---- You kind of have one on the 180 already.
#24: Re: Oil Cooler Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Tue Nov 22, 2011 1:18 pm ---- Im fitting one for the conversion for my 1.4, pretty p**s easy tbh
You just need to calculate the flow of oil from the pump (check the pump is within tolerences and pushing out what it should) and this should allow you to find which one will be suitable for your needs.
To large and the pump cant cope = starvation. To small = Oil burns/thins
#25: Re: Oil Cooler Author: D4NTP, Location: Not Leeds or its surrounding areas!Posted: Tue Nov 22, 2011 2:29 pm ---- Considered fitting one but it never gets near the red and i use 10w60 millers race oil so the high temp wont thin the oil that much anyway. I'd go for better oil rather than a cooler.
