I am told that the 86 Porsche 944 Turbo oil cooling system is a direct replacement for the 1985.5 Porsche 944 oil cooler.

I am fixing my 85.5 NA oil cooler because of oil and water mixture and wanted to do the conversion while I'm at it. Is this a better way to go than buying the KISS conversion kit?
Let me know if you have a Turbo system for sale.

You will need the oil filter housing with the oil cooler line connectors. At that point you are free to use the factory unit or a more efficient aftermarket unit. I'm installing a Mocal cooler on my car in place of the factory unit.

I don't have an extra oil filter housing but I do have the stock oil cooler and lines if you are interested... pretty cheap too since I have no use for it.

OK Let me know the price and I'll start looking for a housing.
Do you have photo of the cooler?
What is the best location for the oil cooler on the 85.5 NA?

Also is there a delete plate that goes where the 85.5 oil cooler is housed after the installation of the Turbo oil cooler?

The turbo housing bolts in place of the 85.5 housing.

Is it true that the 951 and the 1986 944 Turbo are the same?

The DareDevil

The number "951" signifies "944 Turbo" irrespective of the year.

So, yes, "951" and "944 Turbo" are the same.

Thanks.
In addition to the oil cooler, hose and air duct; it appears that I need the housing that bolts on to the engine!!
