[QUOTE="CCS86, post: 14778635, member: 140595"] The Mishimoto kit definitely looks like it is high quality, but the cost is a bit out of hand. I work in manufacturing and just don't see the cost justification. Comparing Mishimoto to the Derale kit, the improvements I see are: -Better quality heat exchanger (definite value there) -AN fittings + braided hose vs hose barb + standard hose (really just cosmetic) -CNC adapter plate w /thermostat vs cast adapter w/ thermostat? (This is just based on photos and I'm still not sure if Derale includes a thermostat) -Mounting bracket vs none. (I'm not too concerned about mounting it on my own) I'm hoping that we can find some hands on experience with Derale's kit. I'm certainly not interested in plumbing something sketchy into my oil system. No drop in oil temp is worth a potential sudden loss in pressure! But I think there is middle ground in finding something durable and reasonably priced. An oil cooler is a pretty simple assembly. [/QUOTE]
