Those figures are good and the stock readings, but...... Wheres you sensor located? If its before filter, before cooler you will get more pressure drop by the time it gets to your engine.

how much temperature can it be decrease when the oil cooler install?
a lot, from max 110 down to 75.

i put the pressure reading just before the oil goes back to the engine after the cooler.
I wanted to clarify which way the oil flows. Is it out of the block on the outside and into the block on the inside?
Ie- oil return from the cooler goes through the middle of the spin on adaptor?

Correct. Oil flows 'outside' of filter first then down the 'middle'.
Gonna have to get one of these me thinks. I only want the cooler and not the relocation kit.
Need to sort out where to put my turbo feed line. I was thinking put a T piece on the 'out' part for the aftermarket temp sensor andturbo feed and then run the aftermarket pressure sensor on the 'in'
Reckon I would be pushing it to use the cooler sandwich plate AND my existing plate to get the additional sensor holes?
Maybe I could get them welded...

I Gotta quick question about the senders. Which is the best way to set them up?
My guess is that the oil temp goes on the hot side straight out of the block, before the cooler.
And the oil pressure on the return/filter side before it goes down the middle of the adaptor and back into the engine.
Yup! Thats the way to do it. Oil temp before cooler. Its at its hottest there as its just being picked up from the sump. So all good.
And pressure after the cooler as it enters the engine. That way you can see if your getting stock pressure values going it to the motor. So all good there too.
