Oil cooling for gearbox?

[Jim_Coupe]

Hi,

Im running a Audi coupe turboQ 2.7L stroker for track use.
I wondering if its neccessary to use oil coolser om my gearbox. Whats you experience?

Any list of parts needed to build an cooling system ?

[Nik0las]

are you runing 5cyl stroker or V6 2.7t?? As far i know easier will be to swap the gerbox with DSY from B5 S4/RS4

Yeah use a DSY/EDU box that already has the internal oil pump. Then you can just plumb in a cooler - simples.

Aaaahaaa.. I did just discover that the DSY has oil pump stock!! Didnt know .. so there i can just plug in the cooler to the plumbed holes?
DSY/EDU sound very expensive?

I runn 5cyl monster stroker.. I sitting here and wondering about what gearbox that could suit my application best? hmmm

EDU : Gearbox Audi A6 98-01

[Nik0las]

not sure how expensive it is but some consider these boxes for the strongest for our cars. Here we have car over 1000hp on crank and it is with such box.... This is your only option I would say...

[Jim_Coupe]

yepp,, the other option is to change gearbox every year..

I`m on my 4th season with a stock 01e from a 96 RS2. The oil gets hot off course but no issues besides that. It kinda depends if your going to use it for race or not. If only for trackdays, you run typically 5-6rounds with 1lap for cooling. In racing you will drive for a longer periode and the demands for cooling increases.

[Jim_Coupe]

Thats true thoug.. I usually run 5-8 rounds on track..

go for DSY everything is bolt on except maybe finding better place for the oil cooller...

[Jim_Coupe]

What about the garbox linkage on the DSY

What about the garbox linkage on the DSY

The standard 6 speed linkage works with it, if I remember right all you need is one spacer washer on one of the gearbox mounts, everything else is just straight swap.
I will be finding out soon as I have one in my garage waiting to go on my car.

[Jim_Coupe]

Are you guys 100% sure that the DSY i bolt on ?

[V6quattro]

Yes i have one.

dude i have audi s4 b5 2001 us one , and it have EDU gearbox but doesnt seems to have oil cooler? or am i mistaking? if no can i bolt in oil pump for it?

You maybe right, I have never seen one. I was told the DSY & EDU both have the internal pump & fittings for the cooler, maybe it is just the DSY
