if the copper core does'nt leak then keep it on there,quite a few have had them split but i've never had a problem with them.

Same as nayls my copper core seems fine just keep an eye on it. I run a seperate oil cooler with thermostatic plate but this is a bit over kill.

o.e for me, it does the job, some people fit the so called uprated copper ones so they can say they have something uprated on their car
