    Long title but the name says it all...

    We have all had rough days where removing the plastic oil filter cap on the stock 2.0 FSI | TSI engines resulted in a crack right down the middle. After a while changing this $150 part becomes a PITA.We hit the drawing board and engineered a kit that benefits everyone by incorporating a cast aluminum oil filter housing AND a screw on oil filter. We have also gone a step further! You can now have an air cooled oil cooler kit from Mocal added to your kit. (some assembly MAY be required).



    KIT INCLUDES:
    (1) Modified 1.8T 06A Oil filter housing
    (1) INA Engineering Adapter plate to allow use on 06F block + rubber o-ring.
    (1) Mocal 19 Row oil cooler
    (1) Mocal thermostatic sandwhich plate w/ fittings
    (1) Oil filter housing gasket
    (4) 90* XRP fittings
    (3) M7 bolts (custom for the additional thickness of the plate)
    (1) M8 bolt
    (1) MANN replacement METAL oil filter.
    (8) Feet of XRP Nylon hosing

    PRICE : $799 USD + SHIPPING

    As always send over a PM or email when you are ready to order

    You run it to the catch can. I assume 80% of the people on here are running a catch can by now. If not you tie it into the OEM breather port.

    Just not seeing an outlet for it in your kit.

    The OEM oil filter housing has the oil separator and outlet port built in up top.

    Can't quite tell what the port on your adapter plate is for. Looks like a provision for an oil temp or pressure sender.

    if you look closely at the top of the oil filter housing there is a port for the crankcase breather. We use a machined fitting (seen below the 90* fittings for the oil cooler) and a cir clip to secure it into the housing.

    Ah good to know. For some reason I thought it was a coolant connection.

    Guys if you have access to sourcing a 1.8T oil filter housing, we can knock 200 USD off the price tag.

    I've been running a custom Mocal setup on my Corrado VR since 2004 ...I wouldn't put a similar setup on a vehicle unless I started seeing higher than normal temps.

    So, has anyone surpassed the factory cooling abilities? I'm not buying that whole "cracked housing" bologna ...sounds like an extreme overtightening would be the cause if it ever did occur.

    A lot of people do over tighten the housing and crack it. My old motto is if it breaks upgrade it to something better so it doesnt break again. And in this case this is the upgrade so you dont have to worry about cracking it. Personally i have never cracked it but i know a lot of people who have.

    Installed pictures and a full diy will be coming soon. There will also be some tips and advice as to where you can mount the core for optimal efficiency. In one of the locations, there will be an option for an air directing shroud the will increase flow to the core. Stay tuned

    Nice manifold

  34. 11-02-2010 01:25 AM #34
    Well even though most of the other manifolds were "flashier", somehow i kinda like this one better

    Issam did you make this ?

    Looking really good, and compact.Although once again i don't like that sideways TB placement, but
    i guess all you guys making them must have your reasons.Still, very good job indeed.

    Once again hoping SOMEONE would make a flaps manifold for us OEM guys... *sigh*

    Sam supplied me with the head flange and cast runners. I made the rest of the mani using half round extrusion and cncd valocity stacks.

    The placement of the throttle body is very common in the racing world. If i feel there is a problem i can always do what ed at ffe did and add some aluminum pipe to the plenum to change the tb orientation.
