Cool stuff I learned today



For those of you thinking of an aftermarket oil cooler look no further than
your local Pick-N-Pull.

The Volvo 760 Turbo has a thermostatic Whaler adapter and a 13 row cooler.
It fits perfectly in our cars.

I got the adapter, oil lines, and oil cooler for $10.

I was also ripping into a Saab 9000 for APC turbo parts and dicsovered that
while the electronics may be a worthwhile thing to try to fit to a Turbo
Rocco, the Turbine housing for the wastegate is a POS.  I took two apart and
both were cracked.

Back to the drawing board on a turbo management system.
