Trying searching the review forum, I believe that their oil cooler is a pretty new product they released so it might not have been looked at yet. STM makes great stuff BTW.

I haven't tried the STM oil cooler. I replaced mine with a B & M oil cooler with stainless lines/aeroquip/earls fittings for around $300. The B & M oil cooler has a 3 inch fan built into it. All you need is some stand offs to extend the oil cooler forwards so the fender liner will clear the fan. I have a link to our local minnesota forum that I can give you for the exact parts, etc. PM me if you need some help.

Just got my oil cooler today and here are the Pics and such. At first look it looked a little small but after looking at the old I could tell that they are about the same size, I mostly wanted this kit because I didn't want to bother going through all the work to find all the fittings and such that I would need. The kit looks good. Only thing I noticed is that my BM cooler they sent is squished at the top, you can see in the pic. Right side is not even. I don't think its a big deal. If I was going to be looking at it every time I drove my car it would drive me crazy but since its going to be hidden away its not major. Over all everything looks good. The fittings look to be spot on. Wont know till install, Hose is just hose looks good and feel it should be plenty for the install. So only little complaint would be the cooler being a little off so my rating of everything this far would be a 9 out of 10 Thanks STM
