Oil Cooler question

[hotreef]

Do you have to remove the Oil cooler when installing turbo or douse it depend on the kit. And is it only removed to fit the turbo?

most of the kits have you remove it. i haven't had one on my 2000 in 9 years and its been just fine

99% of the time the stock oil cooler must be removed. We have, however, installed aftermarket oil coolers on many bikes when our customers requested that to be done.

However, Greg is correct - not having one is not usually a problem!

Whats up with the after market oil cooler? got a pic? It gets 110 deg here in the Central Valley of California. I am worried about Temp on the old girl!
Thanks

when removing the stock cooler, are there any other bypasses etc that need addressed or can you just add block off plates?

Just remove the cooler,use block off plates and remove the plug behind the oil filter.

The big key here is to remove that plug, actually a restrictor because there is a small hole drilled in it.

He is talking about this plug! It looks like a set screw with a hole in it. You will see it when you remove the oil filter.
