MHX-248S High-Efficiency Single-Pass Oil Cooler
Improved Racing's Motorsport Heat Exchanger (MHX) series oil coolers are the result of several years of development and testing to create a highly efficient oil cooler. These coolers were perfected through extensive testing on our in-house heat exchanger test system and wind tunnel.The MHX-248S oil cooler is a single-pass version of the MHX-248 (and previous MHX-245). The single-pass cooler has a much lower pressure drop than our triple-pass cooler, minimizing horsepower loss, at the expense of slightly less cooling capacity. Compared to a 72-row, 4.5" wide core stacked plate cooler, this cooler is 12% smaller overall and 9% lighter, yet holds more fluid volume. The core is 23% thinner and has a lower row and fin density, allowing more air to flow through the cooler to other heat exchangers (such as a radiator) behind it. A major design focus was to minimize welds and brazings to make these coolers stronger, lighter, and less prone to leaks. All four end caps are single-piece CNC-mac
