Csf oil and dct cooler

Looking to purchase a csf oil and dct cooler. Wanted to purchase the do88 but the pricing on the csf is much more attractive. Anyone got the csf oil and dct cooler installed? Any issues with them? Looking for some genuine reviews before I purchase.

If you can wait, do88 usually offers great Black Friday deals.

Lots of us installed the CSF units. Unfortunately they offer zero benefit over stock.

there is actual data from a non-sponsored person on the forum regarding the effectiveness of the do88

And at the same time there are others with the csf with the opposite experience

Why surprising? Check their website and elsewhere for any verified data. You won't find any. I wonder why that is...However, independent testing with AIM data with nearly identical cars on track together proves stock performs better.

I guess it's better for me to just wait for a Black Friday sale on the do88?

Don't think UK acknowledges Black Friday.

+1 on do88. DCT specific - was already overheating halfway through sessions at COTA when I was fairly new to tracking. Swapped the stock cooler for the do88 & have not had a problem since even though pushing the car much harder & faster now. Have the rest of their coolers too & they have done their job well.

Cannot speak for CSF but do88 is legit. Just ordered their full line of coolers for an '18 M2 w/N55 that I just picked up that will see some light track time
