how does an oil cooler effect oil pressure?

would it be a good idea to have an oil cooler plumbed in to a turbo feed so cooler oil goes into the turbo? how would this effect pressure?

it affects pressure by upping the quantity of oil needed because of the extra capacity

is the best way to fit one just by using the filter adapter thingys?

or with a relocation kit be careful though read up on it, It can cause problems

is it something thats worth doing when i put the turbo on?

yes but get a thermostatic kit so the oil is allowed to get upto temp before it starts going through the cooler

yeah that makes sense, are they shockingly more expensive?

My Mocal oil cooler kit was just under £200. It will be fitted in the next week so keep an eye out on my profile if you are interested

My plan is to run my turbo set up without a cooler first and wire in an oil temp gauge to see if its needed
