Perfect example of how to get banned from the forum. GoodbyeThe excuses are already coming...... Thats what I thought u little snowflake.
Next time u run ur mouth be ready to back it up u little PANZY!
No one is referring to racing around in circles u little homo. Lap timer? That made me lol literally!
Maybe if u wernt cock-fed as a baby vs. breast-fed u would have some BALLS!!!!! Proves what a little bitch u really are!
The irony here is too real, it is killing me. LMAOI know ur an internet HERO and all but maybe everyone here isnt aware of those items? Did u think of that snowflake? I put those on a while back and it made a NIGHT and DAY difference with my idle and overall performance and since then I havent had one misfire! The forum SUPER HERO who knows it all! Lmao....
That was the smartest thing to come out of ur mouth since the last blk cock! Attaboy Derhase!
IDN maybe ur just stupid or something? Well, ya know what John Wayne said about being stupid!

I think he's being facetious, but could be wrong
By far the best solution for an oil cooler on these cars.I was thinking of doing an oil cooler but getting the R bumper and placing it off to the side since I have a non R.
Not anytime soon, but that would be the plan
Do you think that would be a good solution?

That's my plan next year. R bumper. Oil cooler on p. side.I was thinking of doing an oil cooler but getting the R bumper and placing it off to the side since I have a non R.

I’ve yet to have any problems with the DSG with no coolers even in 90F heat. Bare minimum I’d consider removing that cooler (or relocating behind the driver side fog light) and moving the oil cooler as far towards center as possible. Will still throw some heat off to the cooler stack, but our street testing showed about a 50% drop in IATs just moving the oil cooler from pass side to centered.
I talked to a guy doing endurance racing in their GTI, iirc he did stock intercooler, all of the rads, and just swapped out the DSG cooler for the RS3 one. I'm astounded that would make a difference, especially for endurance, but he swore by it.
I think the car ran in Britcar Endurance Championship/Trophy as well as the 750 MC Club Enduro Championship? He (Luke Handley) posted in the VWRacers group a couple years ago when he mentioned they had added the DQ500 cooler. I believe this is the same car, but with another year or so of work added:If it's anything near stock power level, that would explain a lot honestly (for engine temps). Interesting on the RS3 cooler. Might have to keep that in mind/test in the future.
What series do they run in? This platform is about the last thing I'd ever choose for endurance racing. Horrible heat problems, poor fuel economy on track, small fuel tank, complicated electrical stuff...

Looks like it eventually went to an HPA FR450 and their intercooler, and they did about as much as you can do to convert a chassis into a TCR replica without the v-mount stack.
Interestingly, it seems he had a another endurance car built elsewhere before this one, though they don't mention what they did for cooling: https://motion-motorsport.co.uk/mk7-golf-endurance-build/
it's the heat exchanger on top of the trans. I'm baffled that it made a big enough difference to be worthwhile, but it kept that dq250 going for a while. p/n 0BH-317-019-FWhat is the DQ500 cooler....external or a larger heat exchanger on top?
Not directly helpful, but this is interesting: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10159423-0001.pdfI’ll have to double check the coolant flow diagram, I have it saved somewhere. But I would imagine adding the auxiliary R DSG cooler so that coolant flows through the cooler before entering the trans exchanger would help a lot (I would hope this is how it functions from the factory). I like that it would also be an OEM solution without any real fitment issues (aside from a needed SAI delete for DSG GTIs). Minimal pressure drop since not running straight DSG fluid such a long length, plus if you’re running straight water in your cooling system, that lessens the potential of slippery shit on track should something bad happen.
