Agree with Anger on this one I have no stat in mine and no problems, better flow without the stat, put a rag over the cooler when its really really cold and its fine, just takes a few mins longer to warm up. it still gets bloody hot on track (circa 400bhp)

I have mine behind the passenger fog cover, so you can control air flow to it as well as from it, Top mounting looks nice, but wouldn't want any kind of oil leak or drip above or near the turbo, I believe Greg ran one in his old blob top mounted with no problem, I think he had the Hyperflow top mount Oil cooler kit.
