Default WTB: Cargraphic Oil cooler...Any got one for sale??

As the post says I'm in the market for the Cargraphic Oil cooler? I'm still wanting to use my A/C and need a cooler larger than the Turbo S.

If anyone has a good one for sale(or knows of one) or even where to get one new please let me know.

I'm also interested in other options fro cooling if there are some.

Thanks,
Chad

Gert has them again as does Ruf and Cargrahics. I recently inquired to the last two to get pricing etc. I think Gert has the best price

Sweet. Thanks Basal. So during track sessions where does your stock gauge read? Just 9 0'clock or even lower?

9 o'clock or so, even on a really hot day/pushing it hard. Perhaps slightly higher than 9 in the pits (or in stop and go traffic on a hot day) then I use the fans and it would go back down below 9. I actually don't really think about my temps much since it is not a problem with this set up and has been durable so far. On cool days on the street, when the front/oil cooler circuit opens up, it sits pretty close to the bottom and have thought if it is a problem being too cool? At least that was my experience with the stock/UMW stage 2. Will watch it a little more closely with the 3.8 transplant next season but pretty confident it won't be a problem.

I hardly ever see it above 9 o-clock and usually it's down at 7-8 o-clock. I have to make an effort to get it hot enough to get the thermostat to open and be able to see the gauge read any level. Although I know I have oil and always have pressure, I still hate seeing the oil level gauge needle in the red. Gotta ignore it. If you add an adequate aux. cooler you will not have any problems with heat.

Chad what's up man ,car looks good! I have an S cooler if you decide to go that route,I was just at an area track for a club race and noticed on a 993 Cup it simply had back to back stock units ...
I always figured should I add an additional I'd either piggy back it or back to back on the a/c

Hey Bert, thanks its coming along nicely...that tends to happen when you keep throwing money at something...hahaha. Unfortunately an s cooler won't get it done for me. In theory it's pushing at or just over 500bhp on the street tune and want to make sure it's got plenty of cooling capacity. The GT cooler seems like the easiest(retains good a/c quality) and also very efficiently. I mean I have yet to see someone complain about it for the power levels I'm at.

Update: I purchase & received a lightly used "Gert" cooler from a fellow Rennlister over in Europe. I want to thank him for a very easy and well done transaction. I will look to mount it in the car in the next few weeks.
