OTTP Heat Exchanger (4th Version/Newest Version)

I'm in the market for an additional heat exchanger, and have been looking into OTTP's newest offering. Their new heat exchanger is a radiator style core which replaces their 3rd versions bar & plate type core. Some info. I have gotten from Sean are as follows:

It uses a raditor style core (all fins not bar and plate).

The core is actually larger then zzp's as well

Core Dimensions

28"x7"x3.125"

Overall Dimensions

32"x7"x3.125"

This unit weighs 8.4 lbs vs 14.5 of the last unit.

End fittings are metal and welded to the unit itself (ZZP's are plastic).

Does anyone here have this new version yet, and if so how do they like it? Thanks guys!

You can always replace the plug on the bottom if you had to. I'm not lowered so it really wont cause a problem for me. I'm looking for info on how well it cools.

i have it and its pretty nice. i was told its about 30% more efficient and its a lot lighter. the only thing i didnt really like to much about it was the nozzle to drain it is directly on the bottom and is like 5 inches from the ground..but i havent had any problems with it rubbing, the handle to drain it was bent back and that little plastic strips saves it from hitting the ground.

Thanks for the info !! Have you noticed a drop in IAT2's with it ?

How was the install ? Did you remove the bumper to install it ?

umm i havent checked out the IAT2's but the install literally took about 30 mins. bumper didnt come off. just took the plastic off under the hood so i could see down there better and those are just those clips. it fits tight but slides in with ease. ill take a picture for you if you would like but give me about 15 mins to get it taken and uploaded.

heres the shity pics the bugs beat it up

heres front view
http://i886.photobucket.com/albums/a...o/DSCN0553.jpg

heres the bottom i jusr discover the nozzle rubbed a hole through the plastic. i even bent it up so it wasnt lower. i drive my car very easy and its not lowered
http://i886.photobucket.com/albums/a...o/DSCN0552.jpg

heres a pic to show gap between bumper its tight but fit in easy. also shows the mount area a little bit
http://i886.photobucket.com/albums/a...o/DSCN0551.jpg

heres a pic to show gap between rad and new h/e like 3inches apart
http://i886.photobucket.com/albums/a...o/DSCN0555.jpg

its not really hard on the install might get a little coolant on you running the hoses. then you gotta keep filling it and driving it and filling it throughout the week to get all the coolant down in the new h/e. jack stands and taking off the plastic cover over top the radiator is all you really need to do it..

If you can mount it with the bumper on, make a how to because I want to know how you did it. Had to be magic

It's a friggin drain. You really don't need it .... Pluging the hole with a smaller fitting to avoid scraping is not "fail".
Your right "plugging the hole with a smaller fitting to avoid scrapping is not fail"

However re-designing a HE and not putting the drain plug IN the PROPER location = fail

I dont even have it yet ....

I'm trying to see if anyone has it, and what they think about it.

By the way the 4th version is different than the one you have. Not saying it will fit better, because I have yet to buy one and install it

I agree with that.

Yup, heard of this. Waiting for them to release it so I can scrap my unit that magically spurs leaks at the 2 sides.

When I get mine I'll let you know ....

Hopefully someone on here knows so I can get the correct size plug ahead of time.

I took the drain off of mine and put in a plug......just take the fitting off and go to Home Depot or Lowes.......you will find the size. Use the loctite thread sealer vs tape though.

This heat exchanger works wonderfully. IAT2s recover very quickly (even when in 100 octane mode). I don't know how anyone could properly and perfectly fit; also drill the holes to mount the HE without removing the bumper cover or front valance.
