Hi Roy,

thanks, i keep it up for you

íf it is ok for you i will answer your PM in here

i didn't use intercooler fans becouse i found them useless and it just means more complexitiy, a fan is typically needed there where not enough air can flow -> slow speeds and corners
the trick with the water is to use his high specific heat capacity! and the other thing is a pushing fan just has ~70% power of a equal pulling fan * wich means i had to mount the fans
behind the radiator but there is just ~1cm space to the oil coolers, so there is simple not enough space

* the fan direct the air in rotation and some mm later she must through the straight fins of the radiator, the air doesn't want this and create a backpressure -> a drop in efficiency is to follow

for you oil cooler project i can advise you to use a greedy thermostatic adapter, the advantage is that he also uses sensor ports

i bought a ST205 specific HKS SSQV kit, so i had everything i need to mount the BOV -> air box blanking, flange, further installation parts

but it looks like you have a very fine machine shop, your work looks perfect
