Oil Cooler

The N54/N55 are the powerhouses of BMW, one of the most common tuning platforms, and a fan favorite for spirited driving. Being an N54/N55 owner you know that oil temps can get out of hand leaving you with an anxious feeling and the needle a little too close to the red on your gauge cluster. What if you could get the oil flowing faster, maintain lower temperatures, and still have proper engine warm-up?

Upgrade your N54/N55 engine with our Billet oil cooler housing, replacing the underperforming factory-cast aluminum unit. Engineered for enhanced performance and a blended aesthetic, our Turner oil cooler housing features an OEM+ black anodized finish and our own engineered lower-temperature thermostat. Unlike makeshift solutions like thermostat bypass kits, our housing integrates an OE thermostat, ensuring a gradual yet expedited engine warm-up process, similar to factory settings but faster.

Out goes the factory 110-degree Celsius (230F) thermostat, replaced by our 70-degree Celsius (158F) counterpart. This new thermostat triggers oil flow a significant 72 degrees Fahrenheit earlier than the factory version. This early flow translates into prolonged lower oil temperatures for both the oil cooler and engine, maintaining a happier, healthier engine with consistently lower operating temperatures.

For N54 owners seeking to use the full potential of their tuned or modified engines, our upgraded housing and thermostat are must-have additions, especially for those who frequent the track or enjoy spirited drives on winding roads. Even if you're not pushing your motor to its limits, this upgrade significantly enhances reliability. With rising oil temperatures, the risk of oil breakdown rises, resulting in compromised lubrication, more engine deposits, and increased wear over time. Our solution addresses these concerns, protecting your engine's longevity and performance, regardless of your driving style.

For vehicles equipped with the factory oil cooler, our housing offers a multitude of advantages and is a direct replacement for the OEM unit. If your vehicle lacks a factory oil cooler, this presents an ideal chance to upgrade your setup with our housing, enabling the addition of a factory cooler for enhanced performance and increased reliability. Our primary objective is to maintain optimal oil temperatures, ensuring proper lubrication for the engine's internal components, in turn prolonging their lifespan.

Features:

Thermostat - 40 degrees Celsius/ 72 degrees Fahrenheit lower than the factory unit Billet aluminum to replace the raw cast aluminum factory housing Optional cooler capability for cars without an OEM oil cooler Utilizes the lower temp thermostat to circulate oil sooner rather than an always open solution which inhibits warm-up Combine with OEM oil cooler to add cooling capacity to your FBO N54/N55 or replace the stock housing for a cooling upgrade using your existing cooler Replaceable thermostat and gaskets for easy maintenance Quick easy installation Kit Contents:

Our upgraded oil cooler housing was designed, engineered, tested, and quality inspected by our Research and Development team at Turner. Nothing but the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer, and rigorous long-term product testing.

High oil temps are one of the triggers that causes the engine electronics to curtail boost, cut power, and possibly switch to limp mode. The stock oil system was not designed with enough cushion for running more boost. We have seen limp modes come from stock vehicles on the race track. To prevent limp modes and reduced performance, Dinan has developed this oil cooler kit with much more surface area than stock.

The Dinan oil cooler kit fits in the stock location behind the front spoiler on the passenger side of the car. This is an ideal location to maximize the ram air effect from the front bumper. New air ducts and vents into the wheel well help improve air flow. PTFE hoses with race-quality fittings and all hardware are included for install. Some Dinan oil cooler kits can even be used to upgrade cars that never came with an oil cooler. Once you see the Dinan oil cooler side-by-side with the factory cooler, you will understand why it's so much better. The Dinan cooler is bigger in every way - larger capacity, greater surface area, and more cooling tubes.

For over 35 years, Dinan has been America's premier tuning company, pioneering advancements in BMW modification while retaining a focus on balanced performance that preserves the original character and driving feel that a BMW offers. When you install a Dinan part on your car, know that it's not only carefully developed and tested, but that Dinan stands behind it with a four year, 50,000-mile warranty. Dinan believes so fully in their “total package” approach that once your car has been fitted with enough of their parts, they celebrate your conversion from stock to Dinan with an exclusive trunk badge, displayed proudly by BMW enthusiasts everywhere. The oil cooler kit is worth 3 points towards your Dinan badge.
