Description
When one of HEL’s employees experienced high oil temps in his own RS, they knew they had to help him develop the ultimate oil cooler kit. After a period of successful testing, it’s now available to buy.
HEL knew straight away RS enthusiasts wouldn’t want to drill or cut anything to fit an oil cooler, so they 3D scanned the engine bay to find the best solution. As a result, they manufactured a custom aluminium bracket to mount the oil cooler on the crash bar using the OEM mounting points. The cooler then sits in direct air flow behind the top grill, the perfect location for effective cooling.
They based the kit around the popular Swedish-manufactured Setrab Series 6 ProLine oil cooler. The 13 row option gives a great balance between minimising pressure loss while giving very effective cooling.
They have been using Setrab oil coolers for over 10 years without any issues and their performance is unrivalled. There are lots of cheaper imported options available, but none as reliable (there aren’t many things worse than having a burst oil cooler!). In fact, there has been reports of front end collisions and the Setrab oil cooler was the only thing that still worked!
This comprehensive kit arrives with preassembled HEL braided hoses and anodised aluminium fittings. These AN10 high flow performance hoses deliver and return oil from the oil cooler to a trusted Mocal thermostatic sandwich plate set at 92°C (197.6°F). HEL found the 92°C option gives you the perfect balance between cooling when needed and letting the engine warm up safely. It’s also dangerous for the oil to be too cold and the thermostat controls the temperature with precision.
This direct-fit kit offers a safe and reliable cooling system for the iconic RS. It comes complete with easy-to-understand instructions.
