Airtec Motorsport Oil Cooler kit for the Mini Cooper S R56 (turbo), developed for modified vehicles that struggle to maintain stable oil temperatures during track use or sporty road driving.
This kit was developed in the United Kingdom, drawing on extensive experience with performance oil cooling systems for both road and track cars. The challenge lay in integrating a large external Oil Cooler, positioned to make optimum use of the airflow, without compromising on fit and ease of installation.
The Oil Cooler is fitted behind the upper grille, where direct airflow is available for maximum cooling. Combined with the supplied billet aluminium take-off adapter and high-quality hoses, this ensures a significant reduction in oil temperatures under load.
The kit comprises a proven 13-row Airtec Motorsport Oil Cooler, a laser-cut and black powder-coated mounting bracket, and high-quality braided oil hoses with Aerotec couplings. All necessary fixing materials and clear fitting instructions are included for immediate installation.
Please note:
• A minor modification to the upper grille is required for fitting.
• This is a Motorsport product; a slight increase in engine resonance inside the cabin may be noticeable.
