The car comes from the factory tuned for incredible handling and ample power to keep up with plenty of production sports cars. However, there is one area the Honda engineering team came up short, and that was the oil cooling system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrivers regularly see high oil temperatures completely stock and even higher on modified examples. In testing, CSF observed temperatures over 275°F (135°C) on the track, and it was clear the FL5 needed a solution. The engineering team set out to develop CSF’s first ever complete engine oil cooler kit, and the results speak for themselves. CSF’s new engine oil cooler kit is the “Real Deal” with stunning performance and an aggressive look to match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-32864_0ab860-fd\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"\u003e\u003chr class=\"kt-divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-design-amp-engineering\"\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Engineering\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe initial challenge when designing this engine oil cooler kit was two fold. Firstly, the K20C1 did not come with any type of external engine oil cooler provision. The second challenge was space in which to mount an external engine oil cooler(s). The front bumper opening already has the Intercooler, A\/C Condenser, and Radiator stacked there and using most of the available air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile mounting an additional cooler behind the grill is the simple option, that just adds more heat to the full system and takes away from the cooling capacity of the radiator. On top of that, most owners who track their cars will have an upgraded\/larger intercooler which further compounds the issue. That means the sides of the bumper are the obvious and optimal placement. However, the FL5 does not have great airflow in that area. To improve airflow, CSF needed to design a ducting\/inlet system that would allow proper airflow for optimal performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith proper airflow handled, CSF built the kit around our compact universal oil coolers (CSF #8119), using two of them to offer the greatest cooling capacity possible. Paired with Superstrasse CPE lined stainless steel braided lines and DYME Pro\/Spec Quick Release Fittings, this kit is the most serviceable kit on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-key-features\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"wp-block-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo Dual Pass High-Performance Oil Coolers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCPE lined stainless steel braided lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDYME Pro\/Spec Quick Release Fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBillet Sandwich Plate with 175-195°F (80-90°C) Thermostat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOil Temperature reduction of up to ~15°F (~8°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon Fiber Bumper Vents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLaser cut mounting brackets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 7 Quarts (6.6L) overall oil capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePair with the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eCSF #7221\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFL5 Performance Radiator for maximum cooling performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-32864_d66db0-71\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"\u003e\u003chr class=\"kt-divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-oil-coolers\"\u003eOil Coolers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CSF kit is built around two 13” x 4.5” (33cm x 11.5cm) Dual-Pass Oil Coolers (CSF #8119) run in series.

While not a concern for casual driving, it was enough of an issue to address for those tracking their FL5s.

The quality, fit, and finish of these parts are of the highest caliber and have been extensively track tested. Each vent bolts on without the use of double sided tape so they are very secure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut out templates are included with the kit instructions to allow for easy installation and ensure proper alignment.
