				Does anyone have any feedback on the affectivity of the oil cooler  deflectors. I’m not convinced that I should install it, as Tim Olsen says it  actually raised his temperatures. Anyone else have anything to report?

				I don't think the theory is too bad on the device, but with all the variability between builders I don't know how actually effective it was for me.  If it raised my temps it wasn't by much.  I doubt you'll hurt anything by using it though.

				If you also put a damper vent to reduce airflow, you need to ensure the vent is perpendicular to the deflector.   Otherwise when the vent is partially closed, you'll only be sending air through half the oil cooler. 
 I don't have any comparison temps, but I'm not having problems with oil temps being high with the deflector

				Chris, just a FYI  wrt oil coolers.  I have bought and installed an Air Flow  2007X, the next larger sized cooler offered.  I have no intentions of installing the baffle or deflector with the larger capacity cooler.  I do however have Bob Newmans butterfly valve and electronic controller if its required to regulate oil temp.
  
 Having said that I`m not flying yet so this info is worth .02 or less    
 Regards
 Rick

 I have the larger oil cooler without the deflector in it. I also have a valve to control oil temperatures and everything works very good. I would recommend
 The oil door and the deflector would be your call. 4 plus years with this setup and still works great. In the winter months I can set oil temps to pretty much 
 Where I want to run. In the summer it is usually wide open.

				Geoff,
 
 When you say "larger" do you mean the 2006X or 2007X? Both have more capacity than the Vans cooler and I think are both a bit larger.
