do88 Remote Radiator

Hey guys, anyone have feedback on the fit/finish of do88's remote radiator?

I don't think it'll have a major impact, but I already have CSF's main radiator, oil cooler, and DCT cooler, and I thought I'd throw this on to max out cooling on the car.

Well, I can’t take the credit. Jiaim mentioned it in my N55 cooling thread: https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1525790

After a lot more feedback and logging since, the main culprit seems to be the Dinan IC, but thought I’d do this while the bumper cover is off to change the IC.

I don't really know how to read that diagram for their FMIC.
Does it say that it has less pressure drop than stock FMIC? I mean, if so, it would have less turbo lag than stock right?

My oil cooler is trashed from track debris so I was looking at the CSF....do you recommend. Also added stainless screens to lower facia to reduce future damage:

Yup, the CSF oil cooler fits and works well. Don’t forget to add extra oil.

BTW, I did install the larger do88 remote radiator. No idea if it’ll help much, but now my car is maxed out on the cooling side.

Fit & finish of the do88 aux rad is very good.

Cooling - do you track the car?

Not yet... I looked up definitions of a remote radiator. Literally cooling away from the heat source. In this case it's additional radiator surface area?
