Do you track your MINI? Want it to live a longer, more powerful life? Then the Sneed's Speed Shop Oil Cooler Kit is for you. We designed this kit for MINIs that drive on the street but spend time on the track too. After seeing MINIs coming off the track with 300+ oil temp, we knew something had to be done or we would be building a lot of engines. After shopping around for an oil cooler, we decided to build our own. By using a laser cut billet aluminum adapter plate, aluminum aircraft fittings, and a fin and tube cooler unit, we saved weight, added cooling capacity and made a heavier duty kit than others. We’ve been using this oil cooler on our MINI and customer’s MINIs for over two years. Sneed testing showed at least 40F drop in oil temp. Also adds 1 quart capacity to the system.
This oil cooler kit is designed for 03-06 MINI Cooper S, 6 speed and 2007 and newer R56S. The kit comes with all parts and instructions. It is not a universal type kit; it was designed and tested on US R53 MINIs. Some bumper brace trimming is required to fit the cooler unit on to the car
