420A Oil cooler location

[Inkdlyfe]

So this just ran across my mind randomly at 5am so can I install a oil cooler in line from my turbo to my oil pan ?? Like go from my turbo return line to a oil cooler then to my oil pan ? I know it should go from my oil filter but the kit I got from my buddy didn't come with the part that the oil filter screws to so I only have the cooler lines and the sandwich plate so I was wondering instead of at the oil filter can I put it in line with the turbo and pan ?

I guess theoretically you could. It sounds like a pain in the ass to do, though.

Well not really atleast in my head it don' seem hard I'll be sure to upload the end result ,

you don't wanna do that. The oil traveling thru the return line, from the turbo to the oil pan, is not pressurized. The return line should go directly to the pan with no restrictions.

so your missing the part that goes in the middle of the sandwich adapter?

You will probably have to buy a new sandwich plate to get the piece. They aren't very expensive.

I guess i can sell you the one i have. you for sure need it more than me. Its off a greddy sandwich adapter so its not cheap crap. Its new. I just threaded it on a couple turns to take a picture showing its the right size to screw on.

The greddy kit came with 2 different ones. I used the longer one on a honda.

I got measurements for you so you can make sure it will work with the parts you have.

Is that all you need?

I have some extra -10AN x 1/2 in. NPT fittings and -10AN SS hose if you need it.
